Christmas Ornament

Hi friends, I felt like working on some Christmas ornaments last week and today I have one here to share with you.  I used some pretty ornamental dies and paper from Heartfelt Creations to create the main shape of the ornament.

For the poinsettia I stamped several size poinsettias on patterned paper with white ink, cut them with the coordinating dies and shaped them.  I added some fun coarse glitter to the edge of the petals.

I threaded crystal beads through the center of the glued die cuts, these make the ornament sparkle beautifully.

If you have a few minutes to spare stop by the HC Blog and take a look at all the gorgeous projects the design team has created.

Thank you so much for your visit today.
