 You all are greetings.ost today. Hello everyone, it's Vicky here and welcome to the sixth day of my Christmas ARGENAL series. Today's inspiration comes from this dieset. These are the ornament birds and I'm going to use one of the ornaments, a bird, and I'll combine it with my favorite of these series which i have used of two of my projects already. Today, instead of working on my ARGENAL book, I will work on a loose watercolor paper. Αυτό είναι σύγχρονο βασκόματο και η σημανή είναι 8x8. Αυτό θα δημιουργήσει την ευκαιρία για να αντιμετωπίσεις για ένα σχέδιο, αν θέλεις να δοκιμάσεις μέσα στο σχέδιο. Αλλά μπορείς να δημιουργήσεις αυτό στο σχέδιο ή σε ένα σχέδιο like αυτό, που μπορείς να δημιουργήσεις για να δημιουργήσεις. Τώρα, επειδή πρέπει να δημιουργήσω ένα μεγάλο χώρο, θα πάρω με σπράσεις. Αυτές είναι οι μου φαύσεις τελευταία. Είχα να δημιουργήσει κάτι που είχα να κάνει με φαύσεις πλούς και σύγχρονο χώρο και γρήγορα, οπότε είχα decided to go with speckle tec and iced spruce. Αυτή είναι μια καλή συνέχεια και θα χρησιμοποιήσω οκσίδες. Αυτό θα έχουμε ένα πολύ νουτή σχέδιο και ένα σχέδιο τελευταίο. Αυτό δημιουργήσει έναν καλύτερο βασκόματο και μπορείς να δημιουργήσεις σχέδιο like αυτό, αν θέλεις. Αν θέλεις γρουμφή και σχέδιο τελευταίο ή μπλήτου, θα μπορείς να το δημιουργήσεις σε λίγες χώρες και αυτό είναι σχέδιο βασκόματο, για να μην χρειαστεί ένα κομμάτι με λασσάκο. Αν θέλεις να μπορείς να θέλεις να γρώσεις ένα λίγο νερό στο πάνω της σκέδιου, για να βρεις όλες οι χώρες να εξετάσεις δύο more. Μπορείς να μπορείς να δημιουργήσεις και να βρεις και να εξετάσεις δύο better. και χρησιμοποιηθώ για να καταλαβαίνω ότι everything is completely dry before the next step. Τώρα θα κάνω κάποια στενσλή γιατί θα χρησιμοποιηθώ για έναν καλύτερο στενσλί που έχει αυτό το πλαδικό σχέδιο στον κομμάτι και θα πω σε άλλες περιοχές, χρησιμοποιηθώ για το σπέκλι-δεκ. Αυτό είναι το ίνκ που χρησιμοποιηθώ για το σπέκλι-δεκ, οπότε δεν παρακολουθώ κάποια νέα νέα χρησιμοποιηθώ. Αυτό θα χρησιμοποιηθώ για κάποια σπέκλι-δεκ στο σπέκλι, αλλά στην ίνκ θα δεν θα χρησιμοποιηθώ για να πω το σπέκλι-δεκ. Αυτό είναι ο ιστορός μου γλώστασης με το σπέκλι-δεκ, επειδή ας ανοίγουμε να είναι πολύ σκέτος. Το στενσλί είναι ένα από τα τεχνικά που χρησιμοποιηθώ για το σπέκλι-δεκ. Ένα άλλο που αγαπηθώ είναι να παρακολουθώ για το στενσί, αυσχετικά με το σπέκλι-δεκ. Δεν θα κάνω αυτό για αυτό το σπέκλι-δεκ. Δεν θα τ με στενσί. Θα πω ένα παρακολουόκημα, για ένα άλλο για τη μπαθοδημότη, αυτά διούσα να μοdim ένα σπέκλι-δεκ και θα πω ένα σπέκλι-δεκ, αυτό είναι Φαίδι τυνίως να δεν χρησιμοποιηθώ για όχι αυσιασμέ. Από αυτό που θα δημιουργήσω αυτό είναι να παρακολουθώ για να σπέκω, με ένα τρία σπέκλι-δεκ στο σπέκλι-δεκ από τη βασικού ει εγώ. Πάνω, πιστεύω αυτή την butteξιά εχεί, αλλά δεν είναι πολύ βιβραντική. Τώρα θα αφήνω σε ένα τεχνικό τεχνικό και θα δημιουργήσω ένα σχέδιο όλοι για το σχέδιο μου, για αυτό πρέπει να χρειάζετε ένα βιβλό λευκό λευκό τεχνικό τεχνικό σπίτι, όπως και σχέδια. Τα αυτές είναι από στάνπερια, σχέδια από στάνπερια, they are absolutely gorgeous. Αυτό δεν είναι σχέδια, they are very lightweight so they are going to stick on any type of glue really easily. You can use matte medium if you like or any other type of glue in paste form. You can even use white glue and stick them on top. I decided to work with double sided tape just because it is mess free. So since I'm using this wide double sided tape I'm going to tear it into half so I do have long strips but they are thinner. Plus I like that tiered edge which isn't completely straight. It gives a more organic look and it would look better when I stick the flakes on top. If you like your result to be more neat you can just use a straight line and create a perfectly straight frame all around your project. So you see how I did one side. I'm going to repeat the same process for all four sides. And then I'm going to apply on top my snowflakes. I am working on a scrap piece of paper so that they can easily put back in the jar all the leftovers and I can use them again. These snowflakes are chunky but really very lightweight so they are going to stick nicely on top of the double sided tape. And you can even use your fingers and press it down firmly just to make sure that they are going to stay put. I had no problem with them falling out once they were down there. And I went over that double sided tape with my fingers just to make sure that I don't feel any stickiness at all anywhere making sure that it is completely covered up with snow. And of course I do have to add my white glasses. After all I'm going for a wintery look and feel. Now I'm going to put this background aside for those glasses to dry and I will work on my focal points. I use the ornamental birds die and I cut out one of the birdies three times. A couple of times from different shades of red cardstock and one more time out of black. I put my bird together and if you notice I do have a foam square at the back of the wing that is at the front. So this way I add some dimension and I am going to use a second wing at the back just to have some more depth. Now, since this is a wintery look and feel project I want my birdie to be a cardinal. That's why I want to add a touch of black on his face and this is why I cut out the bird out of black cardstock so that I can cut out a little piece with my scissors but this is going to fit just behind his nose. Remember that you can be creative even more creative with your dies and you don't have to use only the pieces that are included. You can improvise and make them your own. Now these are the dies that are included in the set with the birdies that create the ornaments. You can mix and match them to create different styles and I love the retro look and feel on them. I did use three of them and I'm going to stack one on top of the other and the middle paper that I have die cut is actually a silver cardstock so it's going to give a little bit of shine through those holes. Now, mix and match all those different die cuts there is no correct way of how we can put them together. I do want to add some dimension so that's why I'm using foam squares at the back and then I'm going to stick that on the other red cardstock. Now, the one that I have at the back is slightly darker so it is going to give the hint of a shade. The idea is to have the birdie holding the ornament and I'm going to give him these branch to sit on but I want to create a visual triangle with red. So again, I'm going to use the same cardstock that I used for the bird and the ornament and I'm going to die cut berries. Now, in the beginning I wanted to have that branch green but as I move along and I see the project and the way it is going I absolutely love the colors that I have already so I don't want to add a new color to introduce a new color. That's why I'm going to die cut this branch one more time but this time I'm going to use silver cardstock. I think that that silver cardstock with the snow that I have on the frame and the little silver accents on the ornament are going to blend nicely and it's going to bring the whole thing together. To add more interest on my leaves I'm using a tool here and I'm just drawing lines. I'm doing that on a softer area and of course you can do that on a mouse pad if you like and if you don't have such a tool like the one that I'm using here just use the back of a brush or something quite pointy that is not going to tear the paper however. Since I'm planning to frame this project I can add some dimension so I'm using my fingers to add some curve on the leaves and then I can stick it down. If you are adopting this idea inside the pages of a book then you can just stick everything completely flat. I'm adding some shadows on the red pieces this is going to help them look more dimensional and for that I'm using walnut stain this is the brown color that I used for the background sometimes the less color you add on a project the more elegant it looks and now finally it's time to stick everything down first I'm going to start with the branch I'm starting by sticking down the branch making sure that I have enough space at the top for the bird to stay there and I didn't completely stick it down you can see that I have the leaves curled up and now I'm placing the ornament and the bird trying to decide where I want them to be and then I'm going to create a couple of holes where his nose is and at the back of the center of the ornament and I'm just using a ruler here to make sure that these are completely vertical and then through those two holes I'm going to thread some silver line this is going to look as if the bird is holding that thread and the ornament is hanging from that of course you can use a needle if that is more helpful but I did make quite big for those holes so I can easily thread it at the back and then I'm going to secure it with double sided tape I'm going to do the same thing for the other hole I absolutely love when a project has different elements and not just paper so you see here I have the snowflakes, the thread I think that it makes the project look so interesting and that's why I love mixed media now I'm going to stick the bird down and if you want you can even add more dimension by using foam tape at the back but his wing is already popped up so I think it's just fine I'm going to stick the ornament directly on top of my project as well as I mentioned on the top layer of the ornament and then finally I'm going to stick down the berries and you can see the visual triangle there with all the red accents on my page now I'm also going to use that silver thread and I'm going to tie a little bow which I'm going to stick at the top of the ornament just to add some more texture on the project and the way this project is designed has enough blank space just next to the ornament you can add a quote if you like that's of course not necessary on a mixed media project however I absolutely love adding quotes on my project and that's exactly what I'm going to do you can stamp there, you can die cut you can stick stickers it really has enough space for you to play with I decided to go with a combination of die cut elements and a chipboard quote so I die cut the letters to spell the word peace by sticking down peace on earth this is a chip quote by Tim Holtz it is quite dimensional and I love the red letters that matches perfectly with the rest of my project this is how it's going to look inside a shadow box I didn't put the glass on top which I always like to do to avoid dust but you do get the idea of how it looks I just wanted to avoid the glare of the glass under the camera so here are some close up photos just like always you will find linked down below everything I use to create this project so I hope that you had fun today that you got inspired and don't forget to leave me a comment thank you all so much for watching and have a lovely day
