July Spellbinders Clubs: Wax Seal

   Hello!

Welcome to my little crafting place!
It's Christmas in July with this month's Spellbinders club kits and this time I've the first of my Wax Seal projects to share
 
As usual I started by making a batch of seals in different styles and colours, I fond its a good way to focus the mind on what sort of card or other item I could make.
Here's a few of those I made. Mostly I used the white wax that comes in the set this month then cut out the circle while it was still in the stamper just by running a knife around the metal stamp part.  Then I melted other colours of wax and presses the stamper (with the snowflake still in place) into the poured wax.
I also played with adding foil flakes to my wax before stamping, or glitter or minute pieves of pastel shades of wax.  You can really go made with experimenting becuase it its n unholy medd you just reheat and do somehting else!

This pretty snowflake seal from the
Wax Seal of the Month club comes with white wax beads    
  I made this seal by cutting out the snowflake from the white imprint - it was fiddly, took absolutely ages and its definitely not perfect, but I still like it!
While melting some mixed blue and silver wax, I heated the empty seal stamper a little then pressed the spindly snowflake back into it (it just falls out if you don't warm the metal a bit) then stamped the seal into the wax.
 
For the card I found some matching card, then added silver foliage using the 
   
and a sentiment from  the 
Glimmer of the Month set foiled in blue
