SUStars Holiday Home Decor Blog Hop

Welcome to my blog. You may have arrived here from Tory's blog.

I'm doing it again and jumping into a blog hop. I had a craft table to set up at my red hat groups annual Christmas party and in looking for something to make I got a tutorial from Monica Weaver  (mention me if you order anything and she will send you a copy of her 2010 CD with over 90 tutorials) for an adorable Christmas ornament picture holder. Well, I didn't try her little trick for flattening the bottom of the ornament this time, so I just made the ornaments using the rest of her instructions and I think they are beautiful ... I hope you like them too.
I used clear glass ornaments, the Stampin' Up! Northern Frost strip die for the snowflakes, ink refill, glitter or dazzling diamonds, metal tape sheets (from MonicaWeaver), rhinestones and ribbon to make these beautiful ornaments.


Here they are individually:

I hope you enjoyed seeing my ornaments. Next stop is Shelly Peck's blog. Or if you wish to start at the beginning, you can see the entire list here.

I Wish You All a Very Merry Christmas
and a Happy New Year!

These are gorgeous! It was especially nice to see each of the ornaments individually!

Cindy these are all just darling. I read her tutorial also but never got around to making them. Now I think I just have to get with it and make these.

Gorgeous, stunning, beautiful! I can't come up with enough words to describe these!

I've tried making the shimmer ornaments before, but haven't had much luck. It seems like things either didn't move all the way around the inside of the ball, or there was too much liquid and it slid off. Any suggestions?
