Ornament Punch 3-d Ornament

Happy Wednesday to everyone!

This week I am featuring the Stampin' Ornament punch {116794} and the coordinating stamp set Delightful Decorations {116517}

Today I made a few 3-d ornaments.  These are quick and easy to make and would be easy enough for kids to make for their Teachers. 



Punch out as many ornaments as you would like.  The more you use the fuller your ornament will be.




Score the ornaments down the middle.



Next I started to build the ornament, by gluing the folded sides together.  Once I got a few together I sprayed them with Glimmer Mist (Pearl) to give the ornament some shimmer.




I even like to spray my ribbon with glimmer mist. 
Just be sure to give it time to dry (or use the heat gun to dry)


Before gluing all the parts together put your ribbon or string in the middle. 




These were so fun and easy to make, I made one for my 13 year old daughter




I didn't have any pink zebra paper, so I colored 1/2 of my ornaments with my SU! Melon Mambo marker.



Next dilemma... I didn't have a pink bling.  So I colored a clear gem with my copic, let it dry. Worked great!




I hope you enjoyed today's project.  Monday's card will be posted soon.

Thanks!

A Halloween Layout

I am running behind on my projects, but have set aside some time tomorrow to get caught up.

Here is my 2 page 12x12 layout using the top note die for a journaling box. 



Paper is by Making memories.  I used the Designer calendar Cricut cartridge for the title, spider, and October 31st.   The punches used on the page is MS spider web and drippy goo edge punches.  Striped ribbon is by Stampin' Up.




 

Thanks for stopping by!

PS.  The snowman card directions are coming.  I started typing them up and realized this is a card that would be sooo much easier to show rather try to explain.  Now....I just have to figure out where DH put our video camera.  We moved in September and still have some boxes to unpack...I'm hoping it's in one of those boxes.
