The challenge this week at Hand Stamped Sentiments is to create an ornament....of any kind. Check out our Design Teams ideas, WOW....so stinkin' cute!!!
I have been so busy with the baby's Birthday party that I didn't have any time to create an original ornament. So I used an ornament that we made at my last class. I got this idea from Kimberly VanDiepen. She has an awesome tutorial that you can see here.
It's actually easier than you think it is to make. What a great way to use up all of your scraps, too!!!
I know what you're thinking....and yes, I did use retired DSP!!! It's from 2 or 3 years ago. GASP!!! But I liked the colors in it....kind of monochromatic....kind of. :)
Ingredients:
Colors: Sage Shadow (retired), Certainly Celery, Soft Sky (retired), Always Artichoke, Whisper White
Stamps: Bells and Boughs
Accessories: Northern Flurries Die Cut, Paper Trimmer, White Satin Ribbon, Glimmer Paper, 1 3/4" Circle punch
I'll be posting pics from the baby's b-day party soon!
Happy Stamping,
Krista

oh goodness, this would look fabbo on a card, love it! :) and I'm all about using up anything retired, it still counts in my book! :)
Happy First Birthday to baby Travis!
Love the details on the ornament. It's so fancy!
I'm a hoarder which means I have more retired stuff than not so I totally understand using it up. :)
This is so neat and I love the idea of using up scraps! And who doesn't have retired paper?! We have to do something with it, right??
Very cool! I love that you made an ornament out of KVD's medallion thingies:-) This is super cute! I love the colors too!
Cute idea! Pulling out my scraps to do this.
Very, very pretty!!! Love this idea for a tree ornament!! This would really pop out on the tree!! Love it!! Amy L.
