June's Wax Seal of the Month Club

Hello!

Welcome to my little crafting place!

I've been having some fun with the Wax Seal from Spellbinders'

This month it comes with a gorgeous aqua and gold wax bead mix which is definitely up my street

I starteed as I usually do and made a batch of seals just to get the 'feel' for it. I used two furnaces so that I could heat a couple of spoonfuls (one gold, the other a mix of the aqua shades) of wax beads at a time

Then I got adventurous and had a go making more of a sunset look with other colours of wax and added highlights with white, gold and silver pens.

I've made a couple of cards so far and as the summer season goes on I think more will find their way onto my projects!

Card 1

I used one of the aqua mix seals, a matching shade of pearlised card, a piece of finely corrugated card and someaqua waxed twine as the background for this card.

The sentiment is from the June Glimmer of the Month set

To complete this card I made a little banner to go beneath the sentiment and added some coordinating pearls near the wax seal

Card 2

For this card I used a dull gold card blank and added a blue panel, then a curved reddish-pink for a wavw effect.

I added a few lengths of gold twine attached at the right side, then caught up under the 'sunset' seal. I just trimmed the ends at the left and left them loose

The little tassel was made with more of the gold twine.

Again the sentiment is one of those you get in the June Glimmer of the Month set
