Hello there and welcome back here!
Christmas is coming and today I have a home decor to share with you!
I love embroidery hoop, so I decided to alterate one to create this christmasy decor.
I started painting the hoop with white acrylic paint with a dry brush. I make it twice and then I used sand paper to age it a bit.
To give it a vintage look I also applied some white crackle paste here and there and when dry I used walnut stain and rusty hinge Distress crayons on it.
For the background I colored a mixed media Heavystock circle with Distress mini brayer and salvaged patina and speckled egg Distress paints. I then stamped music notes from “The Poinsettia” stamp set by Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous with brushed pewter Distress paint and added some sparkling stars with crackle paste, “Hocus Pocus” Stampers Anonymous stencil and tinsel Distress glitter.
I die cut some candles with "Candlelight" die set by Sizzix and I put them together.
I spraied a watercolor piece of cardstock with aged mahoganu, festive berries, picked raspberry, spun sugar Distress spray stain and winterberry and peppermint stick Distress mica stain, I heat embossed the poinsettia from the homonymous stamp set with Lawn Fawn gold powder and I fussy cut the biggest one from the first stamped flower and the smaller one from the second. To create the leaves I used Sizzix "Deck the Halls" die set.
I put all together and I sprinkled with Distress mica flakes: I love the retro vibes this flakes give to almost everything!
That's all for today! I hope you like this project as much as I do.
I wish you an amazing week-end. Big hugs, Silvia.
