1 Tag.. 2 Tag.. 3 Tag..

More..
Over at Crafty Boots the Challenge is to make a 'Tag or Invite'.
As I have no party plans I went with tags, gift tags to be precise.
This is also my entry for The Stamp Man's 'Emboss It' Challenge.

I hadn't tried my movers and shapers mini poinsettia die so out it came to have a play, along with the mini deer.

I stamped and embossed the Tim Holtz mini tree's with pine needles distress embossing powder {really need to use these more as I do love the effect}

And finished the tags with a wrap of christmas bakers twine and a snowflake charm and a smidge of gathered twig distress ink.
Now all I need to do is make 5 presents LOL
Thanks for stopping by x

My Drawers are Rusty!

Over @ the Simon Says Stamp'n'Show challenge their theme is 

'Rustification'

And it just so happens I have learnt a very cool rusting effect in the Andy Skinner workshop i'm doing.

This piece almost didn't get made as my beloved Vagabond Mk#3 died yesterday.
Another one bites the dust, To say I was gutted would be an understatement as when their working there such a great machine.
Luckily I still had me old trusty cuttlebug and managed to finish the draws with a bit of faffing.

 I rusted the outside of the unit, I then coloured the drawers with 'antiqued bronze' and 'tarnished brass' distress stains. I stamped the drawers with one of Tim's mini stamps,  I stamped and cut out mini circles to re-enforce where I attached the buttons.

 Then it was just as case of filling with goodies, In this instance some washi tapes.

I hope you like my project, Thanks for taking the time to come look.
