Stay Strong Against the Storms Delicate One




Well the weather has certainly turned wintery, and Christmas is fast approaching! How are all of your festive plans going?

Christmas is not always the happiest of times, and with this in mind I made this bauble. It’s base is made of thin wood, and it was an inexpensive find in The Range store.I painted it with  a light blue acrylic paint, and then stamped my beautiful snowdrop with Archival black ink.The Stamp is an old wooden one, I am guessing it is about 15 years old. I have several boxes of those old wooden stamps, I really must use them more often.I coloured the snowdrops with acrylic  paint and an overcoat of glitter! I added the stay strong Stamp from the  Dina Wakley Media - Cling  Handwritten Quotes set and heat embossed it in white. I added a flittering of white paint for falling snow.

For the top of the bauble I used Indigoblu flitterglu and mega flakes.

The delicate snowdrop is standing strong against the snowy storms and holding its beautiful head high.

Thank you for visiting, 
I hope you keep warm, safe, and well this winter xx
