Spellbinders Clubs January Wax Seal of the Month

    Hello

Welcome to my little crafting place! 

 

I've spent a very happy few days playing with items from some of the fabulous Spellbinders Monthly Clubs - I know, I'm very lucky!

 

This time I've a couple of projects made mainly using the Wax Seal of the Month set for January, which has a lovely 'Made with Love' stamp and a bag of wax beads in a beautiful shade of royal blue 

 

I thought this message stamp was perfect to add to hand-made gifts, so I made a loop of blue cord before adding the wax over it and stamping

 

Now you need to forgive me as I'm very much a novice with the wax seal gear, but I thought this would be a great way to make sure I got some practice in!

 

You can get perfect 'rounds' by using a silicone mold, but I also like the more 'freeform' look which was easier for this than using a mold anyway!

making the wax seal itself is easy compared to adding a bit of highlighting with ink or whatever - I've always struggled with rather shaky hands so this is a bit of a challenge!

 

 

 

I also added a wax seal message to this card made using January's Glimmer of the Month set

To get a more suitable colour I added some red and white wax beads to a couple of the blue ones and gave it a good mix in the melting spoon ad I don't have many ready-made colours yet
