The Perfect Touch to a Make-n-Take

Back in February I took a little Make-n-Take at a booth at CHA.  I think it was for Ranger and it showed us how to use their dauber inks to die some tags and ribbon.  SO MUCH FUN!  Well I’ve been wanting to finish it off and recently found the time to do so. 

I used our GORGEOUS Want2Scrap™ Finesse Swirls in Black Rhinestone to finish the bottom edge and then added some inked book words to the top in a quote I found in one of my old books. 

I LOVE how it turned out! It will go great in my studio downstairs.  It doesn’t take much to bump up or finish off a project with little additions like BLING!

Thanks for looking!

Paris ATC

I have another little project to show for you today. This is an ATC that I did a while back for a swap I was in. I have to be honest, I almost didn’t send it.  I really like how it turned out! 

I used the packaging from one of my die purchases as well as some distress inks to give it that aged look.  The image I printed from online.  I think I’m going to have to redo this one so I have one for my house. It would be nice to do a series of these framed for my bathroom.  Hmmmm . . I may just do that!

Thanks for looking!
