It's been a bit quiet around here blogger's!!! Walshie and I spent a week in Melbourne, business for him, and shopping for me......Well a bit of shopping nothing over the top! I managed to catch up with some friends too which was fun.
Whilst I was away I missed a new stamp and die release from AnnaBelle, did you join in the hop to win a lovely Christmas set with a matching die? Hope so.
Andrea also released a fabulous border die this month that I was, pardon the pun 'dying' to play with.
Flameless candles were everywhere in Melbourne so with this in mind I thought about using the die to create a Luminaire.
Basically four die cut borders which I adhered to four corner scored strips. The tube when formed is adhered to a square base and it's here that I place my battery operated tea light.
I used a Memory Box die to tiz up the front of my Luminaire, adding some pearls and AnnaBelle's fine hemp twine. I also made and decorated a small saucer to stand the Luminaire in........what do you think?
It looks pretty in the dark too......though not so easy to photograph:)
Hope you checked out all the Belle's projects last Friday........they were all gorgeous!
See you Friday for AnnaBelle's usual Friday challenge............bye!

Oh my Sue! This is incredible... What an amazing idea and totally perfect with this die. Sounds like you had a fab 'Melbourne' time!
A very creative idea. It is so pretty.
Stunning luminaire -- you brought this one to perfection!
oooh, I love your luminary! I just bought two flameless tea lights because they were on sale at Dollar General and something like this would be perfect for them. Thanks for the idea, maybe I can come up with something using some of my "stuff".
This rocks Sue, very very clever!
How beautiful! I love the die cut, and the pretty flowers too. Looks fabulous with the light shining through!
Sounds like you had a great trip too.
