Christmas is getting closer and closer....can you feel it in the air? I thought I saw snow today (just a tiny bit). I was so "in the mood" that I created 2 projects for you today using the NEW Jillibean Soup holiday set called "Jolly Good Fun".
Here is my FIRST CRACK at this ornament (ha ha - pun totally intended!)
And here is my second attempt, I switched out the Faux Snow for plastic pebbles - they remind me of SNOWBALLS - and match the mittens and sentiment! I stamped on a piece of acetate with Staz-on and colored it with Copic marker. I made sure to punch a hole in the top of the acetate so that it would hang (with the twine). The ribbon is meant to be a scarf. I hot glued pom pom ribbon on the ends.
Supplies:
Stamps: Unity Stamp Co. (Jolly Good Fun)
Ribbon: May Arts
Adhesive: Glue Arts Glue Gun, Adhesive Squares
Twine: The Twinery
Markers: Copic
Ink: Tsukineko Staz-onAND here is my second ornament. I was cleaning the house and was planning on chucking this, but thought - MAYBE I could re-purpose this someday. Little did I know that it would be so soon!
Here is the original:
