On my online workbook this week: Have yourself a Merry Cellulose Fibre Christmas: Snow Globe
Dear
This week's inspiration is … dreaming of a white Christmas.
My tip for you this week is all about the sparkle. I love adding these tiny dew drop crystals to my designs. They are definitely my go-to accessory. One problem though: they tend to let go.
Yes, you can add a stronger glue to each and every crystal but in a small design like this it can get messy pretty quick. My work around is to sandwich the crystals. Place a crystal where you want it, spin the design around and place another crystal right behind it so that the crystal sticker part sticks to the now partner crystal sandwiching the plant material in the middle. Works like a charm and you end up needing to use less crystals (because it makes a bigger impact) if you are designing something that can be viewed from all sides. Bonus… they now look like little baubles!
Enjoy!
Every good wish,
Christine
Talk about bonus… I have added another Tutorial for you this week. How to weave the tiniest of gift boxes. It is so cute!
