CHRISTMAS ORNAMENT IDEAS

Believe it or not, it’s the time of year to start thinking about Christmas projects.  To kick-start the season, I’ve decorated 5 chipboard ornaments which come in 3 different shapes (bauble, star & round).  There are three pieces in each shape.  For this project, I used only two of the pieces, but you could use the third piece to make a double-sided ornament. 

I decorated the front of each shape with paper from the Vintage Christmas 6 x 6 paper pad.

For the backs of the ornaments, I used the Vintage Christmas Snow Globes & Holiday Stamps 12 x 12 scrapbook paper.

Several of the products I used can be found in this month's Ornament Frame Set Kit at Alpha Stamps.

THE CHILD’S CHRISTMAS

I started by covering two of the pieces (a solid piece and a piece with a hole) with decorative paper. Behind the hole, I combined two images from the Winter Kids collage sheet.

Around the ornament, I attached green cypress picks, berry sprays from my stash, and red holly berry stems.  The reindeer is made of wood that I painted white and then covered in Twinklets Diamond Dust.

I used the title “The Child's Christmas” and all the other titles from the Mini Christmas Titles collage sheet.

GOOD WISHES FOR CHRISTMAS AND THE NEW YEAR

The image used for this ornament is again from the  Winter Kids collage sheet.  After papering the chipboard and adding the image, I glued a wire pine needle stem around the opening.

I further embellished the ornament with wired lacquered holly & berry picks, clear snowflakes, white snowflake buttons, white snowflake garland, and a frosted white sisal tree.

I used ribbon from the 2017 Christmas Ornaments Ribbon Set to hang all of the ornaments.

SANTA CLAUSE AND HIS WORKS

For this ornament, I used an image from the Here Comes Santa Claus collage sheet.  The paper behind the image is Aspen Trees scrapbook paper.

I decorated the ornament with a Holly Berry Garland which I cut into pieces to make it easier to glue around the ornament and to overlap it for a thicker look.

The bow is from the ribbon set and the final touch is two sisal trees.
