Challenge Thirty-Three: Glitter Christmas Ornaments by CaseysAngel

CaseysAngel

So, it seems the new hype is the beautiful glitter Christmas Ornaments. For this challenge you are to make a set of three ornaments and boxes. If you do not have glass ornaments that are clear you can use colored ones and do the same thing.

To get the files and lots of examples please see the link here http://forum.make-the-cut.com/discussion/6867/help-with-xmas-ornaments-bezier-warp/#Item_152

Also Bryan has Graciously allowed us to use his box files he created for this challenge. They are attached below.

Sorry Christy, she was asking for a photo so I found a link that took her right to the photo. I did check out your link and scrolled through all 4 pages but did not see a photo. Didn't mean to step on your toes, just trying to find a photo for pmaumau. I am very visual and understand the "need" for a photo lol.

nelda

Sorry Christy, I did go back and there are photos in your link, but they are the small ones that you have to click on to see. I missed them when I was scrolling through the discussion cuz I was looking for a big photo. Sorry!

ok second challange down and omg how many to go lolololol These colors and decorations were chosen by a mom and her daughter to go on their family tree. They just picked them up tonite and liked them. I tried to get them to let me put shadows behind the names but they liked them simple. and it saved me vinyl. The boxes ..well thats a different story..Im not a paper crafter at all. But I am learning to like it. I must admit Im really struggling with it. but im here to learn and yall are some great teachers. You Probably Cant Read it but the turquois ornament says Isabella on the front and The Future Mrs Bieber on the back ..she is Justin Bieber Crazy. They also picked up a wall vinyl that says I Heart Justin Bieber Each letter was 11" tall 11 X 24 for Justin 11x24 for Bieber the heart was HUGE lol

JeannetteC

Nice work Maxine. I think I'm going to attempt these this morning.
btw, Bieber mania was on the news this morning here. I guess someone is bottling dirt from his hometown and selling it! I only live about 40 minutes from there, so I was thinking that maybe I could go get me some dirt to support my crafting addiction, lol.

SimonsMom

Those are great everyone

shirltop

Wow everyone! I love how all of these are turning out! Maxine, the boxes were the easy part for me! I still have to do the vinyl names and ribbons to hand them! LOL

Maxine

Kitski I ADORE that smiley face I now KNOW what im going to do with my bright yellow one ...this is exactly why I get so excited about the crop ...because I know Im going to see some really great stuff. Shirltop ..I really struggle with paper . but before the week is out Im going to master it!!! lol. I think the most fun has been all the beautiful ribbons.

MichelleMyBelle

Gorgeous ornaments everyone. I'm out the door again in the morning all day. :-( I hope to get some challenges done.

CaseysAngel

Great job ladies!!!!

K_lee

Here's mine, I have the flat round ornaments in the bigger boxes...and JeannetteC, your box was tooo small for my ornaments, but it sure is cute, included it here too, empty, so I resized one of Bryans.............

kathybessey

Well what do you know I figured out these boxes LOL. Here are my first ever glitter ornaments! The black one is for a co-worker who is the bah humbug grinch of our dispatch center. I will figure out the vinyl names or such later.

kathybessey

Dang it, I thought I resized the second one but apparently not. It won't let me delete it.

Maxine

Klee Id love to have your resized file if its ok I have some flat round ornaments too. Im going to work on some more boxes tomorrow.

K_lee

Maxine I put the flat round ones in the 67 mm box, just slanted them backwards alittle....the one I resized is for a 1 3/4 size, it was Bryan's 67mm I just downsized.......so let me know if you still want it, I'm sure it's okay with Bryan to share it, I hope, lol.......if not, maybe we can get him to make one for us, his boxes are awesome.......

SBryanW

Yup, it is OK to share!

K_lee

Thanks Bryan, will post it........here you go........

Maxine

Thank you both so much!

Helen

Everyone's Christmas Ornaments are so pretty, I hope to get into this challenge tomorrow.

K_lee

Your welcome!

Fawn

Maxine

I have to share this one its my favorite my niece loves bugs its done with purple glitter then stuffed with turquois blue crinkle paper
Rachellann youll recognize the ladybug lol

CaseysAngel

very pretty ladies and K lee that box is way to cute.LOL

JeannetteC

They must be awfully tiny balls! I made them the size someone asked, but I realised my smallest ones are still way to big for them too!

nomem

All the ornaments are lovely! I've made a few, but can't find the pretty ribbon....so, mine aren't as nice as some I've seen here. Where do you all find the nice ribbons?

Maxine

i buy mine anywhere I see ribbon even at the grocery store sometimes but most of it I bought at michaels joanns and hobbylobby. I had some left from last year. When walmart has it 70 percent off sale after christmas is the best time to buy craft things.

But you think black Friday is bad ! that day you really need caffiene and amo

CaseysAngel

LOL Maxine

SassyLady_Lisa
