Dear scrappers,
This month Seguras Crafts is dedicating this “Twinkle Toes and Tails” set to the Lupus Awareness Month:
When I saw this stamp set, I decided that I wanted to make a nice banner for my school office board. I love the little mice ballerinas and the amazingly assertive sentiments. Perfect for the little ones that come to my office sometimes just wanting to hang out and relax.
It goes so well with the shaker tag I made previously that I decided to include in the banner:
For this banner, I used the Cloud of Hope from Seguras Crafts printed papers (finally out) for the background and I remembered an old banner die I had in my stash and used it. This banner die needs and insert, so I cut some tags out of different papers: white (CTMH), tranquil tide, Petal Whisper Pink and Crystal vision purple pearlescent cardstocks using an old die from my stash (Tattered Lace). I stamped the little dancing mice using Stanzon and colored the mice with distress markers (TH Rangers). The pearlescent cardstock were particularly good for blending the markers:
Now, I know to use those cardstocks instead of the regular ones that are too adsorbent.
I added the purple rhinestones (gems) that came with the stamps and added more rhinestones to the Prima rhinestone stickers. I colored the prima stickers using a purple alcohol marker to tie everything together.
I really enjoyed this project and how it hangs in my board:
I made a little video of my process:
I hope you join me in checking Seguras Crafts and following the other amazing design team members.
And remember the team logo, “Together we create for mental health”
