is born...with the help of this week's challenges on the
Simon Says Stamp & Show blog (stars) and
Grungy Monday (winter/holiday themed project using previous Tim techniques/ideas). I won't go into details about how I made this fussy
3-D star (about 10 1/2" in any direction) but suffice it to say it was fun and challenging. Had I thought it out more thoroughly the sides would have mirrored each other so that you wouldn't be seeing the back of an item on either side. Oh well. Next time. lol After all this work it
will be gracing the top of our tree. Sorry grandma, your crocheted angel will have to go elsewhere.

ReplyDeleteHi Susan. I'm sure Grandma won't mind her crocheted angel taking a back seat to your beautiful star! I love the embossing and all of the different Tim die cuts you incorporated on your star!! It's so pretty!! Thanks so much for sharing your work with us at Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge. <3 Candy
