Recently had a play with these Whimsical Birds from Tando. Absolutely love them because I can put all my amusing sentiments with them. Used the smaller ones for cards and the larger ones for tags. They're made of high quality chipboard which, once painted, actually feels like MDF. Thinking of turning the tags into fridge magnets.
This is an idea from Anna Marie Designs which I saw demonstrated recently and fell in love with them immediately. They are quite a large bauble, too large for a tree, but intend to hang them in my house for Christmas.
At the moment, they are balanced on vases, awaiting the right size twine to hang them with!
I've been having a play with some Viva products after seeing a demonstration from Anna Marie. I started with the napkin ring in case it went horribly wrong as this was the inside of a toilet roll(!) and then progressed onto the vases and tea light holders which were all plain glass when I started.
This tea light holder was just me doodling with one of the products and then using a ceramic effect over the top.
This one was just using chalky paint, however, when I put the heart on I had messy fingers and smudged the tea light holder with the darker paint so had to paint a (wobbly) line around the top!
A couple more baby cards, very similar in layout and colour to the last two but used a different stamp and these cards only measure 4" square so would make a lovely gift card.
