Make It Monday #138

Hi guys! I’m totally hijacking my blog, while I should be waiting patiently for the CASE Study post to launch in two hours… I’m aware of the fact that this post might get buried under the next one quickly and therefore go unnoticed, but life’s crazy here lately and I find myself forgetting things, I just want it off my head… plus, frankly, I’m more than a little giddy that I had a chance to finally give modelling paste a go :)
Remember how I tried gesso on my mixed media page recently? Well, it worked, sort of… but heck, the paste is SO much better. I got myself some gold and silver metallic paste as well, and hope to put them to a good use for some Christmas projects. IF time allows 😀
Anyway, I wanted to do a falling snow scene, and since I don’t have any suitable template or stencil, I cut one with my Silhouette. I can see in my future, cutting plenty more different templates, to have on hand. Much cheaper than buying the actual stuff!

I’m playing with the current Make It Monday - Inlaid Die-cuts. Love this technique and it was fun to use it again. Plus, the In The Meadow dies (which I used again in this short period of time…) were perfect for what I had in mind.
The birds and hare, were cut from glitter paper. the patterned paper is from Lawn Fawn. Please note that the ‘mound’ is not a PTI die, I cut it by hand. Easy peasy job. One more inspiration for this card, the Muse challenge #41, with the beautiful card by Janet.

  1. Oooh I have seen some examples in a stamp store of the paste, though was afraid, if you say go ahead it works good, I am in!!! Top of my list now as I love stencils, however want to try more than sponging, this is a GREAT post!!!

  2. I can see your modelling paste smile all the way from here LOL! Love how you used it for the falling snow and lovely inlay of the tree :)

  3. Your silver critters add just the right pop to your pretty holiday card with the falling snow & “inlaid” tree. Looks like I might have to check out modeling paste one of these days. Love my PTI In The Meadow stamps & dies ~ great card!

Your comments make my day!
