I was asked by a group that I demo for about three times a year if they could do the Christmas ornament from the front of the Autumn/Winter catalogue - well, what a fabulous excuse to get to do it myself too - hee hee hee!
So here is our version - thanks to all those dedicated SU demos who have posted tutorials online and made making this creation so much easier. As each decoration takes 20 green ornaments and 20 red ornaments that is 40 for each decoration. Luckily for a workshop of 10 Teressa came over to help stamp the images and pre cut them to save time at the actual workshop - thanks Teressa!
I only wish I had taken a picture of all the decorations together as they were stunning!
Sorry for the darkness of the above photo. I was really eager to use the Holiday Frame Embossing folder (Mini cat p7) and the detail is so gorgeous that I choose to simply use whisper white card stock, leaving a small border of the metallic base card. I simply wanted to showcase the Ornament Keepsake stamp set so used Lucky Limeade for one of the small ornaments stamped three times to make a 3D decoration hung from simple organza ribbon, that I had free with an earlier promotion - hee hee hee! I also wanted this group to see the builder wheel and simply used Whisper White craft ink and the Good Cheer builder wheel on Cherry Cobbler card stock for the greeting that runs along the bottom of the card.
To finish this workshop we finished with background stamping an A4 sheet of Whisper White card with the Snowflake Soiree stamp set in Midnight Muse, Tempting Turquoise and Pacific Point and then cutting this A4 sheet gives you 8 card layout from one sheet of printing. Use this link for the One Sheet Wonder to see what I mean, and give it a go yourself. It's a great template - TFS.
Keep on crafting, Gen xxx
