Christmas Mittens

Not Just for the Holidays Want2Scrap friends!!

I have a pair ornaments to share with you today. I made them as gifts for a family member.

I started by gluing designer papers to both sides

of the chipboard mitten embellishment.

After the pieces were completely dry

I distressed the edges of the papers and

created a hole in one end using a hole punch.

I cut an eight inch long piece of twine.

Then secured the ends together,

in the shape of a loop,

using hot glue.

The twine loop was attached securely

through the hole created earlier.

I used an assortment of trims and laces to create a cuff.

This served as a clever way to conceal the area where

the twine was attached to the chipboard embellishment.

Want2Scrap 12" Sleek Strips in white pearl and red rhinestone

were used to enhance the beautiful striped paper

on one side of the chipboard mitten.

Want2Scrap bulk bling pearls in coordinating colors

were glued to the other side where the dotted paper was used.

A cute red bow and mini red rose finished the look.

Want2Scrap Items Used:

12" Sleek Strips Pearl - White

12" Sleek Strips Rhinestones - Red

Want2Scrap Bulk Bling Pearls - Red, White,

HAPPY CRAFTING!

Hello Want2Scrap friends, Lovita Redd here!

I was sitting up late one night, after a very trying day, and decided to try and relax myself with a little crafting. I figured it's time to get started on my Holiday cards. This is the first of a few Christmas themed cards created using Want2Scrap's Chipboard Quote, Paper Flower, Bulk Pearls and Swirl Finesse.

I made a 6" x 5" base card from 12" x 12" craft Cardstock - by ColorBok. The edges are darkened with Color Box Mix'd Media Inx - Leather. I cut 4" x 5" and 3 1/2" x 4 1/2" pieces of designer papers by The Paper Studio. The edges of these papers were distressed using the edge of my scissors. Small tears were added for added dimension. The papers were adhered using Want2Scrap's 1/4" Double sided premium tape.

A Merry Christmas - Chipboard Quote in the center front with a rhinestone to dot the "I" in Christmas. Small pieces of lace were glued beneath torn areas with a pearl secured on top of each. A Want2Scrap White 1" Paper Flower adorns one corner accented by mini red roses. Bling was added with the addition of the self adhesive Swirl Finesse - Silver Rhinestones and a red rose.

HAPPY CRAFTING!
