Happy Holidays!

I have been having a ball playing with the new Hero arts sets. I saw this one on a blog also cased. I used my supplies and thought that this was cute using a nestie. There is a similar idea in the Jingle all the way Hero Arts holiday 2010 catalog using the wreath kit.

I love you!

I wasn't sure how this one was going to come out and I have to say that It came out awesome. Still having issues to how my camera shoots to a flat object. A work in progress. I did a couple of different techniques here. I wanted to make a peice of wood like out of paper. which of course looks totally different here that the real thing. Anyways, I took a piece of paper, and swiped it with brown dauber and let dry, then swipe again with white school glue- let dry and then over it again with a white dauber ( happen to grab the wrong one which was a pearl. and had to touch it up with the brown again. to hide some of that shimmer Happy accident I guess). Then I could die cut it.
