Snowflake Peg Ornament

Just a quickie from me today. I wanted to show you this super easy, super cute snowflake ornament made from clothes pegs. There are loads of tutorials out there for making them, so I won't bore you with the details, just Google Peg Snowflakes 😉

Anyhow, once I'd made the snowflake I gave it coat of Gesso and inked the edges with Walnut Stain Distress Ink. I found a long forgotten pot of Diamond Dust and so gave it a generous sprinkle of that, cos you can never have too much sparkle right?

I then embellished it with the Frosted Fir Adornments and Winters Breath Embellishment Kit from Polkadoodles.

The NOEL was created by ME on my Brother Scan n Cut.... can you tell I'm super proud of myself 😂

I'm undecided as to if this should hang or top my tree....

Thanks for popping in today.

Picnix Nordic Christmas, Take One Make Three More - Part 3

This is another project that I made using the scanned canvas image. Again it was really quick and easy and allowed me to use other items that I had in my stash.

I've tried to achieve different looks with each of the cards that I made from the canvas. This was my vintage card. I have to say I think it's my favourite one and I was a little sad to give it away!

Tomorrow I'll post the final card made from the original canvas. So if you're interested please feel free to stop by.

Clean & Simple Snowflake Card

I was lucky enough to be selected to take part in the Crafty Ribbons Top 5 Ribbons Challenge. Over the next couple of days, I'll be showing you the projects that I made for them.

 First up is this clean and simple snowflake card. It was a really quick and easy make and I will be doubtless be making a few more of these!

The embossed and glittered background was made using an embossing folder and Stickles. The sentiment is computer generated. I've added a bit of ribbon and that's it done! See told you it was easy.
