Tres Jolie Kit Club–Autumn Tealights-November 2021 Cards, Tags, & More Kit

Hey, all! Welcome back to my corner!

For my final project of November for Tres Jolie Kit Club, I am bringing you some fabulous home décor—Tealight Lanterns—using the Cards, Tags, & More Kit and even a bit of the lavender paste from the Mixed Media Kit!

With some dies and the beautiful “Hello Pink Autumn” papers from Prima from the kit, I put this autumn [flameless] tealight décor piece together. Check out my video to see how I did it!

After I cut my lanterns out and assembled them, I went back and carefully unfolded the bottoms and cut off the flaps so I could just pick them up and set them over the tealights. I also have some “Magic Potion” Effect Paste on the windows to add a little sparkle!

My stands are made from some cardboard tubes—the kind that is in the center of toilet paper & paper towel rolls—and since I used the same paper for the stands and the doily’s, I wanted to break it up a little, so I watered down some of the “Lavender” paste from this month’s Mixed Media Kit and just swiped it on around the tops of the stands before I added the doily’s.

I used my “Tattered Pinecone” Die on more paper and just rolled them up, then added some “Magic Potion” to them as well to keep the sparkle going!

After I had everything put together and it was dry, I added some sisal to the bottom for some more texture.

Tres Jolie Kit Club-Tags-November 2021 Cards, Tags, & More Kit

Hey, all! Welcome back to my corner!

Today I’m bringing you my first project—some Autumn Tags–for November using the Cards, Tags, & More Kit from Tres Jolie Kit Club. This month’s Cards, Tags, & More Kit is filled with Tres Jolie Chipboard and Prima’s “Hello Pink Autumn,” a wonderful combination to work with!

The tags are from Tres Jolie, and make a wonderful, sturdy base to build on! Check out my video to see how I put this project together!

Below you will find two photos of each tag—one of the tag as a whole, and one close-up of the cluster.

Each tag has some base similarities – I used some Lindy’s Gang embossing powder on the chipboard shapes and along the edges of the chipboard tags, I used different paper patterns to “break up” the background of the tag, and I added some plain, dark brown sewing machine thread to give a bit of extra texture.

Each tag also only has one “set” of matching flowers from the flower pack. With all the other patterns and pieces on the tags I wanted the flowers to stand out and not just become more of the background.

These tags went together rather quickly with the help of my hot glue gun! I just piled on some glue and added my pieces! Hot glue is also great for helping to add shape to flat pieces! After shaping, I just fill the curves with some hot glue to keep my curves in place.
