What a great opportunity to get to play with lots of fun stuff from Maya Road and Xyron this past month.
I started the background of this great Vinatage Tin with Bohemian Bazaar paper by Graphic 45. In order to fill in all the ripples on the heart tin, I used some stickels to cover where the paper did not meet the edge.
To add some layers I used the crochet trim from Maya Road in yellow. It made for a nice frame for the sentiment to pop. The fun shaped paperclip was also added for dimension. The sentiment really stands out with bright framing and lift from the clip!
After I had finished my focal piece, I decided to make this into a magnet and Xryon was the perfect answer!
This was my first time using the magnet tape and it is seriously great. I was so surprised at the strength!
To cover up the tape on the back I ran a heart shaped peice of coordinating paper through my 5" Creative Station.
The tape was super easy to pull off the handy dispenser. I was sure to trim it away from the edges so it would not be showing.
I then added my sticky heart from the previous step and it makes a nice finished backing!
Here is is in action on my fridge! This could also be a great embellishment for a card, or even made into an ornament with a bit of ribbon at the top.
I hope you enjoyed today!
Cheers,
