Meet Our Guest Melissa Andrew

Hi ya everyone! This is Melissa from Melissa Made and I’m SUPER excited to be a guest today on the Make it Crafty blog! I love the products at Make it Crafty and the chipboard embellishments are the BEST! For this project I put them to the test. Since they are so intricate, I thought that meant they would be delicate – but NOPE! They stood up to paints, sprays and gold leafing without tearing, warping or tattering! I created a video for you to show you exactly what I did to the beautiful Round Leave chipboard. I also used the adorable little red rubber stamp Sweet Angel. I used my Copics to color her up and added that to the video as well!

As you can see the chipboard is FABULOUS for altering. Here are more shots of the tag I created!

I used my Tim Holtz die cut for the tag and then embellished it with the Round Leaves and a number of fibers and flowers. The paper is from the Graphic 45 collection called Once Upon a Time.
I hope you enjoyed this little tag I created. Don’t forget to head over to Make it Crafty and pick up your own chipboard embellishments! They are perfect for any crafty project! Thanks to Tracy and Zoe for allowing me to share with everyone today!

Hugs,
Melissa
