Now on to my project! Oh my goodness!! I am just sooo in love with this WONDERFUL Ornaments set that fits PERFECTLY into the Spellbinders 2010 Heirloom Ornament nestablities!! Here I have created an ornament. I stamped the image. colored and sponged it three times. I cut them out with the nestie, and then scored the center of each. I then adhered the three ornament together to create at 3-D ornament!

To help embellish the ornament, I used some Red Jute string, White Satin Ribbon and Red Glitz Ribbon on all from the Really Reasonable Ribbon store. I then topped the jute off on the bottom with some pearls and crystal beads! Speaking of the Really Reasonable Ribbon Store, I have created this ornament for this week's Challenge over the the RRR Blog. To create a 3-D winter themed project!

I hope you have enjoyed my project today! It's time to hop on over to Chris's wonderful blog...be prepared to be amazed!!

Connie

Project Details:
Images: Ornaments
Paper: White Card stock

  33. I love it!!!My favorite Christmas Memory is being at my Granny's house. It was always full of love, laughter, family and wonderful smells coming from the kitchen. Oh, just to be there one more time!!

    ReplyDelete
  34. My greatest Christmas Memory is the first Christmas without my Mother. I was only 6 years old. With Mom dying in November and Christmas being the next month, sure we were sad, but my Dad, being the father that he was, did all he could do to make sure his 4 girls were happy. We didn't have a lot of money, but that's not what Christmas is all about. All we wanted for Christmas was the doll house fully furnished, that we saw in the Sears ONLY the doll house and we had to share it, but we all to this day remember how special that Christmas was.

    one of my favorate memorys of christmas was last year we were all living in diff. places my husband out of state and no time for a tree so we took my stack of copic markers in the boxes you can get from target( that come 3 to a stack we had six it had a green lid and we made a yellow start and taped it to the top this was our tree, we web cam us watching our Christmas movie with my son and husband in another state so it was like we were together .

  70. Beautiful ornament, you really rocked this one.

    ReplyDelete
  71. Such a pretty ornament.
    My favourite Christmas memory ...difficult question as many to choose from. One favourite, my Dad set up the card table in front of our beautifully decorated Christmas tree, and we had homemade meat pie followed by Christmas pudding or cookies (cookies were my choice as I don't like pudding). After, we would head off to church for the service where many Christmas hymns were sung -- my favourite, Silent Night.

  120. that makes such a beautiful ornament. one of my favorite Christmas memory was the winter of 1966 we spent it at my great-grandparents home up in northwest georgia in the foothills of the appalachians. grandpa grabbed an axe and we all went tramping out into the back forty and chopped down our own tree. up until then i thought all trees were purchased at a Christmas tree lot.
