ScrapBerry's November Challenge!

Happy Thursday to you!

I've got a fun project to share with you today that I created for ScrapBerry's November and December Challenge. This year is just flying by, I can't believe it's November already. My project features the Winter Joy collection by ScrapBerry's.

The foundation is a plain canvas binder sized 7.25” x 8” that I picked up at my local craft store. It is primed with white gesso. I used stencils and modeling pastes, glass bead gel along with several spray mists and paints for color.  A pretty variety of ScrapBerry’s embellishments helped create the design.

The binder will be used to store our family memories during the holidays. I loved altering the Resin Flowers and the Cherry Blossom Flower to fit with my design theme.

To accent my Convex Metal Frame, I added gel medium lightly to the scalloped frame, then sprinkled with gold embossing power. I heat set the powder. I also have done this to the Set of Wings to blend into my design.

Vintage Season's Greetings with ScrapBerry's

Greetings and happy Sunday to you.

 

I was recently up over on the ScrapBerry's blog with a project in vintage and romantic holiday theme. I'm excited to share with you my card featuring the "Winter Joy" collection by ScrapBerry's. This collection has some wonderful vintage images as well as coordinating sentiment cut outs.

 

"Season's Greetings"

 

To begin, I selected an oval focal image from the “Postcards” paper and cut it out. I then selected my base paper to coordinate with, the “Sprinkle of Snow”. After trimming to an A2 size, I used a distress die and cut the bottom right corner relief design. Added a piece of “Winter Garden” to peek from behind.

 

 

Once I selected those elements, I cut several more die cut elements and layered them with the focal image. First, I cut a circular floral vine from “Ice Feathers”. This is layered on top of a pinecone that was cut from “Winter Music”. As each piece was muted, I added touches of shimmer using my Wink of Stella clear glitter. To complete the framing for my image, I cut another circular flourish and layered underneath.

 

The sentiment was trimmed from the “Cards” paper. Edges are inked, distressed a bit and then touched with a bit more Wink of Stella to add a hint of shimmer. I added a die cut deer peeking out and a sweet bow in White Wax String for interest.

 

You’ll also see subtle snowflakes punched from vellum. One is accented with a coordinating white snowflake brad The collages of embellishments in the right corner were the finishing touches.
