12 Days of Christmas
Domino Garland

 I used travel sized cream coloured dominoes for my garland and drilled holes in the top of each one for the hanging cord.  The 12 Days of Christmas stamps are by Michelle Ward and they come mounted on 2 wooden cubes and are available at Stampington and Company.  The images were all stamped with black StazOn ink and coloured with various Sharpie markers.  Gold details were added with an ultra fine metallic gold paint pen and the edges and sides coloured with a metallic gold broad point paint pen.

Each domino was sealed with Judikins Diamond Glaze and the corresponding numbers for each domino are tiny metallic gold peel off stickers.  I made the garland from metallic silver cord and tied each domino onto it with gold cord and added metallic red, green and silver beads as spaces.

I hope you enjoyed my project and now off you hop to see my Merry Player's projects, click the links in the blog roll below!  Don't forget to pop back to hop onto Day 1 of 12 Days of Creepmas with Smeared and Smudged ;0)
