Merry Christmas from all the girls

I have to admit when I started working on this panel I wasn't sure where it was going.  The background is Barn Door Distress Spray, a gold glimmer mist, and white paint flicked on after the sprays were dry.  Once I saw the red and gold shimmer I knew it had to go Christmas.  I layered on some green polka dotted paper, random text paper, and vintage ledger paper.

 

The best way to spread Christmas cheer

How can you not love this altered coaster?! 

Altered coastes are so fun and easy to make.  This little photo booth girl was so giggly I knew she would make a great elf.  A scrap of paper, a pompom, and a bit of trim makes the perfect elf hat.  I colored her sweater in using my Distress Marker in Mowed Lawn.  

Usually I cover my entire coaster, but the green stripes worked with my theme.   I just popped on a scrap of Christmas paper and some vintage sheet music for layers.  A quote and a sprig of holly complete her.  

Easy christmas gift is done!

Canvas panel with a twist part two!

I hope you liked my canvas panel with a twist.   I have another one for you today.

I used the same techniques I used on the last panel.  These ladies got fancier hats trimmed with pompoms and rick rac.  

I really love these girls.  

I have one more  Found Relative to share with you, so be sure to check back!
