The red squares

On my WOYWW post yesterday I showed a picture of some grunge board and everyone was wanting to know what they would look like when I was done with them.  So without further ado here is the whole lot of them done! 


There are a total of 30- 2" x 2" squares that are part of a Christmas Patchwork Swap that is a swap on All Things Tim.  Each canvas is 12" x 12" and there are 27 squares or rectangles that make up the larger piece.  I got one of the smallest sizes to make and it was really difficult deciding what to make because it can't over lap onto the square next to it. 


The squares were cut from grunge board then colored with Festive Berries distress ink.  The flowers came in a package out of a dollar bin from Michael's and I distressed the edges with the Festive Berries ink.  The flowers had some seed beads and glitters glued on them to give them a bit of sparkle.

Here is one up close!


You can see the embossing on the grunge board and the clear sparkly beads on the flower.  It was fun making these but I am still not in the mood for Christmas!
