HAPPY NEW YEARS!

Follow the blog hop and bring in the New Years! I wish for everyone a great year filled with only good things. Here are a few fun projects to bring in the New Years in style!!

I will be awarding a $15 prize as all the DT blogs will AND VLVS is awarding a $25 prize!  Be sure to comment for a chance to win!

Below is an illustration I made with ink, paint, outlines of images, and this cute Walking Frog!!! I made him like he took a big jump but went too high and is afraid!   I added a Santa's hat I cut from sheet 1363 and adhered it behind the frog's eyes.  While I wrote out the sentiment "Hoppy New Years!," "Time Flies" is another great VLVS image.   

Close up of Mr. Frog. 
Used 3D Glue Dots on just the body.

I found an inexpensive kit for making an ornament.  It is flat back, plastic, with the front bubble.  I love this image of the two party goers in champagne glasses.  3-D Crystal Lacquer adds dimension which shines through the bubble.  I used the lacquer on the glasses and balloons.  Coloring with simple shading adds depth.  Little rhinestone dots add the "bubble" look of champagne bubbles and festive confetti.

Many people do not take their Christmas trees down until after New Year's so on New Year's eve you can take down some of the ornaments and add New Year's ornaments like this one.  This image is named : Couple in Champagne Glass 2.  Viva Las Vegastamps has many New Year's stamps and images that can be combined to create New Year's art!  Make your home festive and fun!

The same image can be used as an invitation, decorative art (put on an easel and place in room), or even a greeting card!  Changing colors, layering on decorative papers add a different touch to the same stamp.  Again 3-D Crystal Lacquer adds the realistic look to the glasses and balloons.  Added are rhinestone words, the little champagne bubbles, and even champagne glass.  Ornaments or art posted around the room brings up the excitement as you wait to bring in the New Year's.  All that is needed is good food, party hats, and noise blowers.

If you have missed any posts in the blog hop, please head to the beginning to Terri Sproul's (Team Leader) blog!!!  Good luck I can't wait to give away some blog candy!
