Christmas Gift wrapping Vintage style

A new challenge for you over at 

the all new looking 

Vintage Utfordring Blog!

(Check it out!!)

Wrap it up vintage style! 

Hop over and read all about it.

This challenge runs over til the 28th of December 2013,

so you 've got plenty of time to load up your entries.

Heres my inspirational input for the Design Team:

After punching out the snowflakes i dabbed them with 

my embossing dabber, making sure not to cover the whole snowflake, dipped them into 

Embossing powder ' liquid platinum',

 then used my heat tool to melt it.

Lastly i rubbed on some vintage distress stain to 'dirty' them up a tad.

I made this rossette/flower using old music note paper,

sissors, vintage distress ink and a 

brad I painted the scraped with sand paper.

Here you can also see the strip of scarp design paper i 

used as a kind of cumberband under the three ribbons.

I used a sheet from an old music note book.

distressing all of the edges with disress ink 'old paper'.

I took a nice new white paper doily

sprayed it with 'Ranger Ink Refresher'

and scrumpled it carefully whilst it was wet

straightened it almost out and gave it a blow dry with my heat tool.

Giving it a dab with Distress ink old paper.
