Spoiler Alert - 12 Days of Christmas

I recently signed up for a swap that Sweetpea is hosting for 12 Days of Christmas. I signed up once then decided to join a second time, jumping in with both feet as usual!


The the first set of gifts that I made were done on chipboard squares with dye inks, mica watercolours  and edged with leafing. Then I coloured microscope slides with alcohol inks and inserted a picture underneath it. The image I used is from http://www.old-picture.com/



The second set are stamped Clay Necklaces with a colourwash over them; the back has a leaf stamped on it.

These are so great Rena, I love them both. The mica tiles have such vivid colors, and what a brilliant idea to combine them with the old pictures. Thanks too for the link, looks like a fun site!
