quick tip hair

Hello Friends, How have you been and what have you been up to?? I was in Montana on a yoga retreat and totally unplugged from TV, internet and phones. It was really good to get centered & look more within than looking outward.  I’m slowly getting back into things so I have a quick share today.

 I enjoyed working with this Mimi called, “Mimi Dear” and created this card for the Penny Black catalog. You might notice the tag from Spellbinders…they are called “Ribbon Tag Trio 3 & I have been using them a lot on several projects that I haven’t’ shared yet.

I made a wig to add for some extra dimension. For the antlers I used this Ultra Fine Flower Soft. I use glue or Glossy Accents to apply the flower soft. First squirt adhesive on the antenna carefully filling in the entire area then pour some of the flower soft on top. Do NOT shake off the excess until the antlers are dry. Let me know if you have any questions. Have a great week! Hugs, Kathy

    The Flower Soft for the antlers is so effective & I love the dimension of her hair. The ribbon tag is a lovely touch & so effective with the twine added to the ribbon to pick up on the brown of those antlers.
