Merry Christmas with a step by step!

Merry Christmas to you all! Today I will show you a Christmas card I have made.

When I started in the WOC DT, I was introduced to something new to me, the Foamiran sheets. 

I had seen gorgeous flowers made with this sheets on the internet, 

and now I just had the perfect opportunity to try it out!

I will later in this post show you how I made them. I have been inspired by several tutorials on youtube:)

The image, dies and papers used are from Magnolia.

And I have coloured the poinsettia (which is original made with a white sheet) in the same colours as you see in the image. The image is coloured with Distress Ink, re-inkers and Markers. 

Here is a close up of my flowers. They are not perfect, but I love making them, and will make many more for sure :)

And now I have a step by step for you on how I made the flowers:

Here is what you need: a glue gun, a heat gun, foamiran, Chalks, dies,distress ink, and red and white stamens.

Cut out the poinsettias.

Then add colour on both sides of the foam.

Blow the poinsettia leaf with the heat gun.

Fold it and curl them up.

Use the glue, and glue them together.

Make a hole through the poinsettia, and put the stamens inside.

Here is the finished result.

And here they all are. 

I hope I inspired you to try making some yourself!

Thank you so much for visiting!

Hugs, Camilla

Christmas style ATC

Hello crafty souls Ulrika here again!

I love creating projects with a Christmas theme so much that I needed to make an extra blog post this week! Today I have three ATC with lots of gold and stunning flowers from WOC to share with you. If you´re not familiar with ATC the size is always 2,5x3,5.

 When you make ATC it´s perfect to use your scraps! On my ATC today I tried to make them in the same style as if I had made a regular sized Christmas card. 

 It´s a bit difficult to take photos with all that sparkle but I hope you can see all the cute details! 

The Berries together with the beautiful Roses and cute mini Sweethart flowers really give my ATC a elegant and pretty look!

 I wanted the flowers to stand out a bit from all that gold so I let them be bare without any glitter this time. I only added some of the golden micro beads on some of them.

To get some interesting texture I also added some gold colored Stamens between the flowers.

Thank you for visiting the Wild Orchid Crafts blog today!

Hugs from Ulrika!

Gold Double Head Pearl Stamens - MKX-566

Miniature Mixed Green Sweetheart Blossom Flowers - MKX-397

Box filled with chocolates - And step by step

Today I will show you, step by step, how I’ve decorated this tin can which I’ve filled with delicious chocolate hearts. 

 

 

 

 

 

 I have decorated with flowers and rhinestones from Wild Orchid Crafts.

 

 

I'v also used  white Pears Stamens.

 

 

Hugs,

 

Randi

HERE IS THE TUTORIAL:
1. Cut open the bottom of the tin can. 

 

 

2. Draw a circle around the can (about 1 cm wider than the size of the can) and cut it.

 

 3. Cut out.

 

4. Place the circle shaped paper under the can and draw another circle around the can.

 

5. Cut around the circle as shown in the picture.

 

6. Fill the can with chocolate.

 

 

7. Glue the circle on as shown in the picture.

 

8. Cut a circle from a hard and strong cardboard which should cover the bottom of the can and glue this on.

 

9.  Cut a piece of patterned paper that covers the whole tin can.

 

 10. Glue on.

 

If you wish to have a lid on your can this is what you do:

1. Cut a cirlcle 0,5 cm wider than the can. Cut a shred at about 3 cm wide and 1 cm longer than the size of the can.

 

 

2. Cut as shown in the picture.

 

3. Glue as shown under.  Use the same procedure when adding patterned paper.

 

 

 

Now your tin can is ready to be decorated!

 

Good luck!
