Last minute Holiday gifts


Usually every year I try to take the girls pictures to give for Christmas. This year Christmas just came up too fast. So I took one of the pictures that I had taken when doing Dusti's senior pictures to fill that need. So I bought some 2x2 square ceramic magnets at our local craft store. Then I covered those magnets with Claudine Hellmuth art gesso, purchased at Picture This to cover the exsisting design. While still wet I placed the photos already cut to size onto the magnet. Then when completely dry I heat embossed the whole top with clear emboss powder. Voila......instant gifts and a holiday photo.

Fish Face

This is Karli and her "fish" face. One night this summer we were at a resturaunt and they had a clown making balloon animals and painting faces. Karli chose the fish which turned out wonderful. Supplies include 12x12 paper Ink by Steph, "moonlight", leaves cut from card stock with sizzix die, fish cut with Spellbinders and Metals, and of course the awesome die cut made at Picture This.
