TIM HOLTZ CHRISTMAS ALTERED EMBROIDERY HOOP

 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 then die cut the word MERRY from black cardstock with Sizzix "Retro Merry Christmas" die set three times, I glued one above the other, I put some drops of glue here and there and I covered with garland Distress glitter.

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.
