Christmas In July Blog Hop -- Week 3 -- Ornaments

Hi everyone and welcome to week #3 of the Christmas In July Blog Hop.
This weeks project is ornaments.

If you arrived from http://scrappycol.blogspot.com/ then you are in the right place.
To start at the beginning of the hop, click on the icon on the right.

Thanks to everyone who is hopping along this week.

I've created a 3-d snowflake ornament using white cardstock, glue, Martha Stewart Tinsel Glitter, and the Cricut cartridge Cheerful Seasons by Creative Memories.

I used 7 snowflakes cut at 5 1/2 inches.  I folded 6 of the snowflakes in half, making sure to crease them well.  I glued 3 together, then another 3 together.  The last one got all of it's appendages cut off so all that remained was the center.  I adhered one set of three to each side.  Once it was all glued and dried and used a sponge brush and some simple Elmer's glue to cover all the sides and added the glitter.  I punched a hole through the top and added a string.  It's all ready for the tree.

Hope you like it.  Don't forget to become a follower of my blog and comment below to for a chance to win an embossing folder.

Happy Crafting
