Wax Seal Centrepiece

 

 

 

Hello

welcome to my little crafting place! 

It's Spellbinders Club time again, and as it's July it must be Christmas!

The July Wax Seal of the Monthis a real beauty, and I've enjoyed using it so much! I had a bit of fun turning it into a motif for a fairisle jumper and this time I've used it as the centrepiece of a Christmas card and combined it with elements from one of the brand new Christmas releases from Spellbinders

This seal has the same aqua and white colourway as the one I s I used on the jumper, but this time I didn't cut out the square but left it as it was - more like a traditional wax seal.. As before it's made using the 'pour and scrape' method, heating the stamp a little, pouring the white wax and scraping away the excess with a heated spatula, then pouring the aqua wax and placing the stamp (with the white pattern still in it) into it.

This time I made the white a little brighter by adding white glass pen ink to it 

I also made a couple of extras of parts of the seal's pattern, the smaller oneis all white, the other was another of the aqua and white ones, each were trimmed to leave just part of the design 

The sentiment is from a new BetterPress set, but I hot-foiled it on the same teal card with gold foil
