Add Some Sparkle

 Morning and a Happy New Year to you all-as it's the 1st of the month I have three DT posts today-the second one is for the "Add Sparkle" challenge at Stamping Sensations.

After inspirations from Rachel  I finally used one of the wooden slices I have and made a tree ornament.

I coated the wood in gesso and white acrylic then silver embossed the Robin from AALL&Create then added foliage with a Pink Frog stamp.Not a good pic sorry but light terrible.

Wonderful tree slice xx

The light for photography is dreadful at the moment.

Such a great idea and quite inspiring - I often think you should be posting 'how to' workshops so we can all see how you do these things. Great way to use this wooden slices, I have some but have never known how to make use of them.

I never thought you could stamp on these slices but you have done a fabulous job - especially with the embossing and colouring.
