Wax Seals - Y, For You, Good Luck

While playing with my Crafty friends I played with some old and new wax seals getting better at multiple layers. Some are still a little wonky...

The 3 lower stamps "For You"  and "Good Luck" is a new technique I tried. Never seen it done before. I used 2 separate wax seals, it was tricky... I did the word seal first, Then I did the round frame separately. Put it back into my seal, added some translucent wax around the edges of the word seals and pressed my round frame into the soft wax. You can see a little overspill. Will have to figure out how to eliminate that without putting the translucent all over the stamp...

Oct/19 - Side Fold Coloring Poinsettia - Everything Is Softer

I came across a gorgeously colored green poinsettia and had to imitate it done by Laura Jane using The Ton "Poinsettia Close Up" background stamp. You can see her post HERE. I don't have this particular stamp from 2017, so I hand drew my interpretation of the image. I have since made it in 4 other colors beside the green one...

This is the 3rd of 5 cards I made with the Poinsettia image.
