TLC296 ~ Christmas Ornaments ~ (10/25/10)

[joan ervin]

Hello everyone!!! Are you ready to have a little fun today??? I have a fun and easy challenge for you...we are going to make Christmas Ornaments!!


While visiting my friend, Betty's (gbedwright) blog, I saw the cutest pumpkin she made and thought it would make a beautiful Christmas ornament!!

Here is a tutorial for three different ornaments.....you can make one of these or feel free to make your own favorite ornament!! I found some wonderful inspiration in Splitcoast's Resourse pages, too....check out the Double Ball Ornament and the Fleur de Lis Ornament!!

EDIT: If you would rather make a different themed ornament, please do so....Fall, Halloween, Hanukkah, baby, birthday.....what ever sparks you interest!!!!

Here is my sample:

Thanks, Joan for yet another fun challenge. Love your ornaments.

I thought I knew all the tutorials in the Resources. I'm definitely going to try that double ornament, even if I have to improvise the bottom a bit. It's a holiday Monday here, so I'm not sure when I'll get to it though - I'm out of my normal routine here.

[Clownmom]

I tried one of the simple tutorials before I went to work. I may try one of the more difficult ones later. Here's my Striped Ornament.

I'll be back throughout the day to see what everyone else has done.

[Vicky Gould]

OK, ok, I screwed up and didn't see the word CHRISTMAS!!! I will try to do another ornament for CHRISTMAS, but, I worked hard on this and I love how it turned out. Please forgive me.

Fall Ornament

[peebsmama]

I added an ornament to the gallery with a different construction technique than the ones you showed us (hope that's ok!). Here is my ornament.

thanks Joan!

[hobbydujour]

What a fun, fun challenge, Joan! Very timely. I used a clear plastic snowflake blank as my base. I thought it might be a little more lasting than paper and could be a tie-on to a gift or a little gift in itself. Thanks!!

I looked all over for my Fleur de Lis die, I was going to make one of these yesterday. It was sitting here on my desk but the mischievous house elves must have stolen the dang thing! I'll keep searching...
Anywho, I made this instead:

I created this ornament for the Longhorn fans in my life!

I have seen some amazing ornaments here this morning, unfortunately mine isn't one of them. The sad thing is I used a gorgeous piece of florentine paper to make it. here is my "Ugly Ornament"

[artystamper]

I love the double ball ornaments Joan! here's one I made today - how fun are these! TLC296 BeRibboned Ornament HYCCT14 by artystamper - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

This is not a project you should start right before going to bed because you'll not get to bed on time! Here is my Medallian Ornament.

[nancy littrell]

Thanks Joan for a fun challenge and the great links. I used the SU ornament punch and made my ornament into a Xmas card. I do want to spend more time with the links for a "real" ornament project. TFS

Fall Ornament

[kayne]

I didn't have much to work with, but by using my butterfly punch from Stampin' up, I was able to make a little butterfly. I will post it in my gallery in the next few minutes. I covered the butterfly with Shimmer Paint from Stampin' Up. In case no realized it, I'm a Stampin' Up Demonstrator and their stuff is about all I have. It was a fun challenge.

I loved Becca's fleur de lis ornament so much that I just had to make another one -- this time in red. Here it is.

[starbucks_stamper]

Such a great challenge Joan!! Thanks and hope to play along soon
