Handmade Ornament with A Muse Studio

Hi!  I thought I would stop by and share an Ornament I created for the newest A Muse Studio Release...

To create this ornament I used half of a plastic ornamented backed it with the largest die cut Pinking Circle A.  I adhered the Largest snowflake from the Snowflake Trio, and infant this was a left over cut from this card...

I then filled the ball with Diamond Glitter, Snowfall Sequins, and clear Sequins.  I also added a sentiment from the You're the Coolest Stamp Set and I adhered it all together with hot glue.  I tied it off with Bermuda Silk Ribbon.

I also created a little tag to go on the side so that the ornament can be attached to a gift or be the gift itself.  I've used the Tiny Tags Stamp and Die Set as well as the You're the Coolest Stamp Set for the tag.

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you'll pop over to the A Muse Studio Store to see all of the new products if you haven't had a chance already!
Happy Crafting!

Lawn Fawn FIT Team

Hello!  We all know how incredibly adorable Lawn Fawn Products are, not to mention the quality of them! (love, love, love)  And when I saw they were having an audition for their FIT team, I just had to give it a try.  After all if you don't at least try you'll never know, right? Anywho... I got a little Christmas crafty with one of their older sets: Trim the Tree and matching dies.  I also used the Peace Love Joy 6 x 6 paper pad.

I started by cutting out a frame from the red stripe patterned paper, adhered acetate, foam adhesive, add sequins and back with cute family photo, hehehehe!  I then stamped and die cut various images.  Next I busted out some copics, trimmed a little banner and adhered to the front of the frame ornament.  Finally I punched a hole in the top, tied some twine through it, and viola!  Now I have a super cute new ornament to hang on my tree this year!

Thanks so much for stopping by and Happy Crafting!!!

Paper Ornament

Hello and Happy Thanksgiving week!!!  Can't you just taste the turkey now?  Speaking of turkey I have a fun card to share with you later in the day or maybe tomorrow to celebrate that yummy little guy... but alas I digress...
Today I am sharing with you a fun vintage ornament that I made this weekend for our DT challenge over at Becky's Sweet Design Team:

I love this don't you?!  It was fairly easy to make too... just cut strips of paper 6" X 1/2" 20 of them, punch holes 1/8" of the way down top and bottom of each strip, use wire ( I used floral wire that I had lying around ) cut at 2", loop the wire in the middle and put two ends through all of the top holes and separate the ends of the wire (to keep all of the strips on), make another looped wire for all of the bottom holes to go through and do the same.  Slowly pull from the bottom strip of paper strip by strip until you have pulled all of them out and keep working with them to from the ball shape.  Once it is formed it should stay like that.  Viola!

Materials Used:
Tim Holtz idea-ology Season's paper pack ( thanks mom! )
ribbon from really reasonable ribbon
floral wire
beads from my stash
