Crafty Emblies memo block & giant peg




Hello all, hope you enjoyed the long weekend.  I didn't get any time for crafting unfortunately but these 2 items were made last week for a friend and I thought I would post them.  I used Lumiere gorgeous metallic paint and they have a fabulous sheen which I'm not sure shows here.  A simple strip of Tim Holz tissue tape is on top of that, and also around the pencil.

The gorgeous Craft Emblies cogs and bolts are rubbed with Inca Gold and they really gleam.


The great big peg is painted in the same colour as the block box but looks paler here.  It also has a strip of tissue tape followed by Inca Gold rubbed Crafty Emblies wooden goodies.  I also glued a piece of bling (necklace) for contrast.  That's it for today, thanks for coming by :)
