with butterflies and pink for the pre-teen age group.

The new Tapestry die is simply beautiful. It reminds me of an ornate fence,

I collect stamps, but not in the traditional sense. I collect used stamps to
pass on to a charity called Rotary, who sell the stamps to raise money for
special projects like installing water pumps in India so that residents can
have clean water. It's a small thing for me to do but it makes a huge
difference to someone else at the other end.
Anyway, I needed somewhere to keep the stamps, so I found an old watch tin
and decided to alter it. There's no mistaking what this tin is for now!

With Spellbinders dies, you can cut a wide range of decorative shapes out of
a variety of materials. I had this beautiful Labels Four shape cut from
foil, and I wanted to give it a little bit of a shabby chic look. Here's how
I did it:
Spellbinders
S5-159 Gold Labels Four
F-012 Precious Metal Foils
Other Materials
KaiserCraft Take Note patterned paper
Seam binding
Decorative pearl button
Ranger Distress Paint Bundled Sage
Gesso
Ranger Distress Ink Brushed Corduroy
Step 1
Cut the shape using Gold Labels Four, and give it a coat of gesso. The
rougher the better, as it all adds texture to the finished product.
Step 2
Using the Distress Paint dauber, apply paint using a pouncing action. This
also adds texture.
Step 3
When the paint dries (it can be sped up with a heat tool), apply some brown
ink with a sponge.
Step 4
Adhere a magnet to the back.
Step 5
Embellish the front. Here I have used words from a sheet of KaiserCraft
paper, a seam binding bow and a decorative pearl button.
It will now attach to a metal surface, such as this beautiful tin from Ikea as seen in the main photo.
