Hi friends! It's Amanda from Twiddler's Nook for the weekly dose of Mix it up Monday. I'm officially out of the holiday crafting for a little bit. But sometimes we didn't get to play with our holiday goodies enough and it's fun to find ways to use them all year long. Today I'm showing an idea to use that sweet Pretty Pink Posh fox past Valentine's Day!
I cut all the pieces for the fox and ink blended them for a little depth and dimension, then used liquid glue to adhere it all together. Next, I pulled out the Spellbinders Little Blooms set and started cutting out flowers and leaves.
I used liquid glue to assemble the flowers and then also to add them into the fox's paws. Then I set the fox aside and used the Pretty Pink Posh Happy Days Stencil on a piece of pink cardstock. After inking it up, I trimmed 1/2" off the bottom and popped it up on a white card base with foam tape. Next I added a strip of yellow cardstock to the bottom.
I cut a Spellbinders Make a Wish Arch from vellum and started assembling the rest together with foam squares and tape runner. I like to use dry adhesive whenever possible with vellum because liquid glue makes it warp. It doesn't like the moisture.
Last I stamped and heat embossed a sentiment from Mama Elephant Way to Go, the used the coordinating die to cut it out before popping it up with foam strips.
For finishing touches today, I added little eyelashes to my fox's eyes and glossy accents to her nose and eyes.
I appreciate you sharing your time with me. Have a fabulous day!
