Holiday Wishes Blog Hop!!!

Hi everyone! Welcome to the Holiday Wishes Blog Hop!!! So glad you could join us! If you came here from Mandy's Scrap then you are on the right track. If you have just started at my blog then please head to Creations With Kathryn to start hopping from the beginning! I have created two projects for this hop - some ornaments and a Christmas card! I am so sorry for the quality of my photos! My camera died yesterday and I am stuck with this one that takes blurry photos :-( Not a good time to happen! Soooooo disappointing! I got so frustrated with the card that finally I just scanned it and it looks so much better now!





We'll start with my ornaments. I poured some clear glaze into the ornaments and let them drain overnight. Then I poured in the glitter.
The images on the outside of the ornaments were printed and cut with my Imagine machine using the Snow Angel cartridge. After cutting the images out, I put a layer of glossy accents over the entire image.
I used my Mini Bowdabra to help me create the bows on the ornaments, except the poinsettia one which I glued some gathered ribbon on. I then added metallic cord to hang the ornaments from the tree.
I also created this Christmas card using a stamp by Stampavie, which I coloured with copic markers. The patterned paper used is by DCWV from the "'Tis the Season" paper stack. I added some ribbon, a bow and a button for some final touches. Hope you like it!
Now, how about some blog candy?!? Anyone? Here ya go!
