Every year for Christmas I love to give ornaments to my family as one of their gifts I give. In the past I have made them or bought them if I seen something that is just too cute to pass up. This year is no different. I was actually inspired by a friend who made them for a project at work and decided that these are exactly what I wanted to do this year for my family. This year I did a set for each of my gifts. Each set contained a House and a Church.
The little chipboard Structures were purchased at my local Michael's. To Decorate them, I used modpodge and various glitters from Tim Holtz, Stampin' Up, and Martha Stewart.
I punched out a heart out of Stampin Up Glitter paper and adhered to the right of the door. The little bell was glued on with a hot glue gun. I used my printer to print up "Joy to the world" and I glued it around the cording with the hot glue gun.
Just a different look at the Church.
For the little house I also used various glitter and modpodge. Then I punched out the heart out of Stampin' Up Glitter Paper and printed the "Merry Christmas" on my computer and adhered with hot glue to the cording of the ornament.
I signed the bottom of each piece with my initials and the year just as a reference for years to come.
