Sentimental ornaments!
That's right, I made something once again in the craft family, don't be jealous, you can too! I saw out here in blog land a party that I wanted to join in. Seeing I am getting confident enough, I thought I would.
Fireflies and Jellybeans is hosting. Beth from the stories of A to Z is the guest judge. While Beth has it all over me, I will say I have learned a thing or two from her. So thanks Beth for inspiring, Keep on keeping there girl! The featured item is clothes pins.
Of course it was easy, why else would I do it? This one I came up with on my own, no copying from anyone or anywhere...however, I am sure this is not the first time done.
Had some recent fabulous family photos, that I thought I would make into some ornaments for the tree. Here is the short self explanatory tutorial, and the end result. I just love seeing my family on the tree. I still have some more to make.
| I bought some holiday cards from the Dollar tree (2 for a dollar) then I scanned my photos on my scanner at home |
| Modge podge, I have not used this in a while |
| Cut the card with my craft scissors, and modged podged the picture on the card. |
| Cut some nice words from the card itself and embellished my ornament |
| And there you have it on the tree. I love it! And look, there is a CLOTHES pin to attach it to the tree! I kept mine original, I could have made in glitter but there is enough bling going on. |
| This one I made look a bit old and worn |
| And I just love this pic of my Mom and I. What a fun, cheap and easy project. I will have for a life time! Thanks for all the hosts that I will be joining this week. I do have to go finish my Christmas cards and shopping. Joining my Uncommon slice of suburbia Flamingo toes ornament party Centsational girl |
