Super sweet and simple, I made 10 of these in 2 hours!
I am making a purse ornament tree for one of my showsand will combine them with shinny Cherry Cobbler colored Christmas ball ornaments. It's going to be so cute!
The pattern for these is in this year's 12 Days of Christmas 2012 tutorial. The tutorial is the top one on the right hand sidebar or the first one on the tutorials page of this blog.
It is hard to judge size in a photo, so I placed 4 caramels in front. This purse will not fit a gift card.
Even after all these years, I get SO excited when I find a cute idea! I saw this snowman idea on Pinterest, posted by Darleen Adams in 2011. She had the electric tea light as the smallest circle on a telescoping snowman card.
I decided to change it up a bit and add the adorable Sweater Trim from the Holiday Catalog!
CUTE!!!
1. Face - Whisper White cardstock. Punch first withthe circle punch from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack (119309), then center the 1-3/8" Circle Punch (119860)over it and punch. I'm not sure if all electric tea lights are the exact same size, so you may want to check first to see if that is the correct size circle.
2. Hat - Extra Large Oval (119859), Brim is Large Oval (119855), Circle on top is 1/2" Circle (119869) Cut the Wide Oval in half, for the brim, punch an oval first them place the punch above the cut out piece to make a brim. Add 1/2" circle pom pom.
3. Glue these together with Multipurpose Liquid Glue (110755)
4. When dry, run through the Big Shot (113439) in the Square Lattice Embossing Folder (119976)
5. Attach to the top of the head with glue.
6. Eye and mouth are Pearls (119247) colored with a black Sharpie Marker.
7. Tie his scarf with Sweater Trim!
8. For the back, a Scallop Circle Punch (119854) and to turn it off and on, I used the circle punch from the Itty Bitty Shapes Packto put a hole in the back.
A couple of Tuesday's a month I will be featuring
someone from my fantastic team of demonstrators, Inking Everything.
This week I'd like to introduce you to Dianna Johnson. Dianna is one of my local demonstrators and a beautiful seamstress! Look at these beautiful baskets she gave me sewn from our Designer Fabric Essentials collection.
I love how these are nestled together. They have some lining stuff between the fabrics to make them kind of stiff...I'm such a seamstress with my terminology, right?!
All tied up with ribbon - a GREAT gift. Thank you Dianna!
Stampin' Up! is giving you a peek into our Stampin' Success Magazine. One of the many wonderful perks of being on the 'inside'!
Believe it or not, this was THE reason I signed up to be a demonstrator over 12 years ago - I love this magazine!
If you would like to start receiving it, our starter kit is only $99 and you get to choose $125 in merchandise for the $99 price.
Yep, that's right, the day after Halloween. It seemed a little weird in prepping for it, but we had so much fun and laughed so hard it didn't really matter that the pumpkin decorations were still out!
