Encaustic art!

It's time for our midway post over at

Tag-along (and ATC's).

I had chosen the theme of

make your own background but you

are welcome to go with anything goes.

For my tag I pulled out some encaustic art

pieces I made a while back.

This one reminded me of an icy lake

so I cut my shape then stencilled some snow

using a snow stencil from Polkadoodles.

Next I stamped some trees for the background

and added some green glitter to their base.

I then stamped and die cut the reindeer from

Peaceful Deer (SU) and added him

to my tag. I added some clear glitter

to the bottom and stuck my tag to

a blue base and finished with a star

eyelet and some blue ribbon.

I used another piece of my encaustic art

for my ATC.

Again I loved the icy colours and pretty

colours I got in my sky.

I stencilled some snow using the

Polkadoodles Stencil and embossing paste.

I then stamped the little penguin and cut him out

using Penguin Place (SU).

I added some grey colour to the bottom before

setting him in place.

 I stamped the wording from the same set

and chopped it up to fit my card.
