 Hello my lovely dear crafty friends. Welcome back to my blog. 


A very warm good morning to you all. Hope everyone is doing well and staying safe. 


Welcome back to My Time To Craft Challenge and this fortnight our theme is SNOWMAN. 


I have created two fridge magnets using MDF tags. I tried something unique this time with my tag fridge magnets. 



First I gave good two coats of white chalk paint on my both MDF tags. Next I transfer the snowman on tags base. Gave a coat of matt varnish on it seal it. Next added texture paste to give snow effect on it and sprinkled glitter on texture paste. Next added chalk paint which was diluted in lot of water to give a watercolor effect. On one tag I added poinsettia flowers and on other I did dripping chocolate effect on it, which I try to from few days but didn't got time to do experiment. At last I gave 2 coats of glossy varnish to seal everything and added magnets on backside. 

Hope you like it. Please do leave me feedback so that I can improve myself more.
