Merry Little Christmas

I have been on an ornament-making kick lately!  I found these plain ceramic ones at Michael's for $1.49 each and I grabbed a couple.  I also found at AC Moore a DIY rub-on kit by Grafix --Grafix Rub-Onz-- and I knew I had the makings of a really easy-peasy project :)  I used a new image, "Little Lamb" from A Day For Daisies (released today!).  I found some clipart online of the Star of Bethlehem and layered the image and then added a shaped text box, "Baby's First Christmas" along with the date.   I printed the whole thing onto the Rub-Onz paper and then used Prismacolor pencils and Glaze pens to add color.  The adhesive gems were added after I transferred the image onto the ornament.  There is a new challenge starting today at A Day For Daisies also!  Anything Goes! More info HERE.  Come join in the fun! Happy Crafting! <3 Lisa

A Day For Daisies - New Release Today!

Hello All!  There is a lovely new release today at A Day For Daisies and you will want to check it out!  There are a number of images --all amazing! -- but I am quite partial to Tammy's mermaid images so I couldn't resist making an ornament for my Christmas tree using, "A Wish Under the Sea."  I printed the image, combined with a text box, "Magical", on heavy vellum, colored with primsacolor pencils and embellished with Stickles and Smooch Illumniate.  The ornament was $1 from Michaels and I put glue around the edge and dipped in Epsom salt.  I love the icy-looking "frost" it created!

Now I can officially say, this is my annual ADFD Christmas ornament - Here is last year's - SNOWFLAKE FAIRY.

I'm sorry for such a short post; I'm running behind this morning!

Happy Crafting! <3 Lisa
