The December Reader Art Quest on the Unruly PaperArts blog has the theme "Santa Claus is Coming to Town. I painted my wooden sleigh with glittery acrylic paints in gold and silver. The Christmas scene was cut out of German scrap. I decoupaged the scrap onto the sled and added various colored and sized gems. I topped the tree with a Dresden trim star. I added some gold braid as the reins of the sleigh. Using a Spellbinders label die, I cut out a tag and attached an embellishment from K & Co.
Still time to get busy with your Christmas Craft projects...Paulette
Wonderful! Love all that German Scrap-I used some on angel pins!
ReplyDeleteThis is so sweet Paulette, my father used to make little sleighs from wood such as this when I was a child which I used to paint and decorate with cute little Christmas Bears and Holly. I still have some of the parts in a box somewhere. I love how you have decorated yours with the Christmas Scene. Thanks for sharing this project with us at Unruly and bringing back some wonderful memories for me. Danie xx
