Happy Valentines Day! Eiffel Love You Forever Angel!

By
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!
 
I love creating Valentines...
 
Today I used one of the Altered Pages wooden angels
 to create this cute Eiffel Valentine!
 
 
 
To start remove the wire hanger for easier painting.... save if as it will be reattached in the end.  Prime the wooden angel with gesso!
 

Paint the angel with Pink Glamour Dust Ultra Fine Glitter Paint, let dry.  Cut arms and face from  Altered Paper Dolls Collage Sheet.  Using VersaMark on the arms heat emboss with clear embossing powder, repeat a couple of times (this stiffens the paper). Stamp image of Eiffel Tower on tissue, heat emboss with clear embossing powder and adhere to the angel body.  
Attach arm with Tacky Glue
 
Use Duo to attach Gold Leaf Foil. Adhere face from  Altered Paper Dolls Collage Sheet to head. Ten attach Dew Drops to wings and head.

Print "Eiffel love you forever angel" on the printer.  Cut and adhere to ribbon. 

 
 
With the Tacky Glue attach the puff hearts!

 Now for an organizing tip.... from my craft room... ribbon storage tips!
 
I keep a lot of ribbons and lace in plastic bags.
 
I buy a lot of ribbon by the yard... when you buy by the yard you don't have a mice spool to store the ribbon on.  I use binder clips to keep the nice and neat!
 
I have plastic containers dedicated to my ribbons.

    That wooden angel could have been designed with that Eiffel Tower stamp in mind because it fits so perfectly! Your angel is adorable!

    Adorable Angel and great idea of how to store ribbon. I have mass quantities of ribbon and fiber and I will be borrowing this idea.

    What a clever angel indeed! I love her Lyneen! What did you use on her head- did I miss that?
    Great way to store your ribbons also!

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.

Full Circle

Hi all! Becky here today! I have been in a circle-mood lately & have been doing circles on everything! So why not do some circles with some of my Gelli Prints??? Here's a simple little card I made using 4 different circle punches, a black pen & some previously made Gelli prints! Hope you're enjoying Springtime in your area! Cheers!
