Vintage Vibe - German & English Scrap
I fell in love with the Children with Signs (Vintage Vibe - German & English Scrap) because I have these small sentiment stamps from Rubbermoon which I immediately envisioned using with the pieces.
Embossed foil paper trims, also known as Victorian Scrap or recently as "Dresdens"
They are made of embossed, die-cut metallic foil paper.

These old-fashion styled Dresden trims are sooooooooo cool to work with. They have a fabulous metal look to them but in reality are easily bendable and mold around corners like butter!
And I am still crushing on this silk from Darn Good Yarn, love the colors, love the little frayed bits and bobs and especially love the feel of silk! I also adore the bronze Hamsa charm to the paint brush handle. According to Aristotle, the hand is the "tool of tools" so I figured it would be a perfect addition to the paint brush.
I popped her up with some glue dots and added a small old and broken paint brush and then painted doodles along the edges.
It was easy to cut the background paper after stamping to fit the inside of the box and then glue a word bead along with a teeny tiny butterfly from the collage sheet just for fun.

Omgggg! This is too fabulous! I love everything about it, every nuance. One of my very favorites...now I want to make one too🎨😀
Sandee, what a brilliant idea to put that Dresden around the edge of the box. It looks perfect. I also love the way you decorated the paintbrush. Those elements are smoking hot. Not to mention how adorable it looks open. Loved everything about this.
Absolutely fabulous post!! Stunning art box, every beautiful detail is amazing!! I have always loved hands and have a mosaic hand that is my favourite piece of art. Hearing that Aristotle quote makes complete sense to me!! Very inspirational post...thank you!
