Colorful Christmas Ornaments by Jana Eubank
Each year we like to make an ornament for each of our kids, and if possible, we love to add a current picture to their ornament. This ornament was created using the My Mind’s Eye Colorful Christmas collection from last year. I purchased the plastic ornaments at the craft store along with the clear filler beads (snow). These are quite easy to put together!
First, I opened the ornament and traced the diameter of the circle onto patterned paper. I then cut two pieces of patterned paper and adhered them back-to-back. On one side I added a photo of my child and the year. On the other side I added a chipboard character and chipboard snowflakes.
Before gluing the ornament shut I added white bead filler for the snow on each side of the ornament.
Add ribbons and a button finish the ornament off.
Thanks for stopping by today! I wanted to share this project for those of you who may still have Colorful Christmas in your stash, but it is really easy to switch out the current collections, too!
Our giveaway for today is YOUR CHOICE of our Holly Jolly or I Believe collection! All you have to do to be entered to win is leave a comment on this blog post today! We will announce the winner tomorrow!
