The inside
To dress the gnome up just a bit I smeared some white glitter glue on his hat, I used a pink glitter pen to highlight his nose, a silver sharpie to add some lines to his beard and some red glitter glue to fill in his heart.
I went to put the gnome on the front of the card and it kind of got lost on the plain red heart. Then I got the bright idea of doing some dry brushing with white paint. Let me just say that it's not a technique that I'm real good at. It did help the gnome stand out a little more though
It's adorable!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness. This one is too charming for words. Oh, and I went to $ Tree & got supplies for the 3 tiered box
ReplyDeleteI see Annie bought the arrows thingy, before you know it you will train us all to be crafters... remember when owls were so popular, and pigs? now it seems to be gnomes
