Stamped Winter Wood Décor

I was so excited when I saw these some fabric covered wooden words in the $1 Bin at Michaels (I think I may have actually squeeled outloud … I'm easily excited by artsy possibility).  I immediately thought how fun it would be to personalize them with some stamping.

I have a friend who loves patriotic décor, so I decided to start with a snowflake from Ornate Snowflakes stamped in Paris Dusk Memento Ink.

I used my smallest Rock-A-Block which was perfectly sized to get a great image each time.

I spaced them across the word, making sure to stamp off the edges several times.  Next I used Rhubarb Stalk Ink with another snowflakes from Ornate Snowflakes.

There were still some spaces that needed a little fill, so I used the neutral tone of Rich Cocoa Memento Ink together with one of the tiny snowflakes from Ahhh … Christmas!

I thought about adding punched snowflakes, but in the end decided just to add some tiny champagne pearls to the centers of the snowflakes, so this holiday art will be mailable.

Here's the finished project … I love that this is something she will be able to display all winter.

Remember, keep your eyes open when you're shopping … you never know when your next artsy project will reveal itself.

  1. Gosh, you prettied up these letters in such a beautiful fashion, and I liked the patriotic theme with that particular word. How very appropriate. Also great for Christmas with the snowflake theme! Great find…yay for you. Takes an artistic eye to see possibilities. TFS
