Art Therapy in Progress - Sizzix

 Good morning Creative Friends and welcome back to my blog. 

Today I am sharing with you a totally unique project designed using the new release from Eileen Hull for Sizzix. 

I have to admit, i often look at a color wheel and see Windmills. So i though why not do that. My background was inspired by Team Member Chris Collins, who shared a tag where the background was embossed on Mat board. 

What an awesome technique  ( Thank you for the inspiration Chris)  and she mentioned it was Eileen who inspired her, so Eileen back at you for this awesome technique. 

I cut a tag using the Mat board, then embossed a couple areas using the die from 666880 Rainbow Wheels

I used the Stamp Set 666881 - Swatch Cards and heat embossed and stamped the large color wheel and the smaller wheel stamp. 

I layered 6 die cuts to create the windmill, and set this on vellum. The Windmill stand was cut from cardstock and i used rust paste to age it and resemble metal. 

thank you for dropping by today.
