Ok, so I'm having a ball here! Or an egg, really... This was a superduper fun project, and I will be making more of this stuff!
This is something anyone can do. You don't really need a room full of equipment and stuff. A roll of aluminum tape from a hardware store, a pair of scissors, and an object to alter (like a metal or cardboard easter egg, a frame, a box, your hubby's old boot, or whatever...) and something with a little texture to stamp textures on the faux metal plates. I'm sure you have something in your stash, in your kitchen drawers, or in the garage.
I used some old eyelet setters and timbles to stamp texture into the foil tape. Worked great.
I watched RachO113's video tutorial on youTube, and got so inspired. This is super easy, and super fun. Check it out! For more great ideas on how to use your roll of cheap fun, check out Linda's video here (I will be doing this next)
And imagine your hubby's happy face when you propose a visit to the DIY/hardware store! ;-)

Framed Magnolias, and a few other cards...
I've had this Ikea-frame laying around for ages, always planning to do something fun with it. And so today - I finally got around to do something about it. The photo doesn't really do it justice, because it is layered with 3D- foam, so that the parts has un-equal height. So much fun! I think I need to stop by Ikea again and get some more of these cheap frames.I've also made two other cards, but without Magnolia-stamps this time (allthough one of them is featuring a Magnolia-flower... *lol*). Sometimes it's fun to do something completely different, and the shabby/vintage style is one that I really like.
TFL!
