Christmas from the Philippines

Mom gave me this photo Christmas card that she sent out to friends and family while we were stationed in the Philippines. I used the February Swirlydoos  kit for this one as well.

 

 

I added some flowers and bling from past kits as well as my stash. Well, really, the majority of my stash is past Swirly stuff! tfl!

February 2013- Round Robin

I have been a bad blogger! Too busy to post my recent lo's. And, yes, there have been some. Here is my entry for the Round Robin for February. The challenge was to do things in pairs. I was lifting a lift of a lift of a lift since I was week #4. This was a great Round Robin and always my favorite Swirlydoos' challenge.

 

 

I had fun using making my own molds. The turquoise was created from a mold that I made using Amazing Molding putty and Amazing Casting resin. Very easy. The pieces are white when dry and then can be altered to suit any lo. I will def being making more molds so I can have my own resin pieces to add to my lo's. tfl!
