Welcome to Week Three of the Christmas in July Blog Hop. I enjoyed hopping along last week with the Christmas cards and this week we are sharing Christmas Ornaments. Hopefully you have arrived here from
If not and you would like to see all the ornaments you can go to the start of the hop at Scrapalette.
Using an ornament and snow globe cut both from Christmas Cheer I was able to weld together this snow globe base for my ornament. I added the snowy paper and cute snowman (also on Christmas Cheer). I was just about to place the whole pieced together design in a laminating pouch but something was missing.
SNOW
I used my small hole punch and cut out a bunch of "snow" form scrap white paper. I allowed it to lay all over my design before I laminated.The final touch was to trim away the extra, punch a hole and add the ribbon. I plan on making a few more of these to send to some of my favorite people this holiday season. Thanks so much for hopping with us. Remember there is a prize up for grabs this week and for joining us for all the week's. This week you could win the Trim the Tree Cartirdge!
Your next stop in our hop this week is The Singing Shell. If you get lost along the way the whole line-up will be posted at Scrapalette!!! Thanks for joining us for another week! See you next week for the last fun hop of our Christmas in July!
