This months challenge for the DT was to create an ornament. I had seen a really cute one made with the Bo Bunny treat packaging at someones blog. I didn't have that, but I did have an empty button package from Bo Bunny which is basically the same thing!
I hand cut a large circle from my first pattern, then cut out the inside with a Circle Nestabilites slightly larger than the raised area on the plastic. I cut out a second pattern (the green) with just a bit of a border and laid that over the first. Myron (one of the new Anime images from InStyle stamps) is stamped, then cut out and adhered to a third pattern. This was cut to the same size as the whole ornament.
All of my pattern papers are from the newest Crate Paper Holiday collection...the North Pole collection kit. The "jolly" sticker is also from the same kit. I hand cut the top of the ornament, adding a hanger and a bow then attaching the whole thing with some brads. Lastly I added some stickles on the edges for a bit of sparkle.
OK, thats it here! Next in the hop is the terrifically talented Lana...so go check out what amazing ornament she has to show you! Enjoy the rest of the hop and don't go out and spend too much money on sales at the mall today...save a bit back and spend some on new stamps over at InStyle! Thanks for stopping by! -Cyndi
