Handmade Snowflake Ornaments **TUTORIAL**

Hey there crafty friends, 

I have a project up on the CutCardStock blog today and 

I wanted to share a step by step tutorial on how to make it!

Today I will let the photos do the talking!!!!

With Silhouette Cameo or whatever machine you might have,

trim out 4- 3-4" snowflakes per ornament.
I used CutCardStock Pop Tones Berrylicious Cardstock.

Using bone folder- fold down middle. 

Run all snowflakes through Xyron machine. 

Cut length of ribbon I used 10". Fold over top to created hanging loop. 

Stick snowflakes together pressing ribbon in the middle. 

Knot the bottom of the ribbon. 

Thread crystals through and tie above knot. 

Cover knot using same ribbon and creating a bow. 

Cover edges with glitter. 

That's it!

 Easy and beautiful right?! I love these!

 I hope you enjoyed today's crafty idea! 

Until next time- Keep on creating!

Products Used:

CutCardStock Cardstock Pop Tones Berrylicious, Connie Crystals- Sun Catcher

Silhouette Cameo, Clearsnap glitter

 CutCardStock cardstock. 

~New Glasses & NEW CHA Releases!!~

Good morning my friends, 

I FINALLY gor my new glasses(my first REAL glasses) Sunday night. 

They are pink with little hearts on the side...(I mean did you expect anything less?) LOL

So far they still make me queasy but apparently I need them because I 

can officially read the TV Guide on TV now! WOOT! Good stuff...

oh that and seeing what time it is...LOL

Ok I have had these sitting in my photo booth for a few weeks now

the pictures are not picture perfect because I was in a rush to get them out

for CHA, but you have to check out the NEW Ornament Globes

from Globecraft Memories.

They have them for Halloween too, and many other holidays!

LOVE me some Globe Ornaments. 

On this one I added pearl pen and wrote "Dear Santa" on the globe.

 For this one I added a Clearsnap Design Adhesive and Glitter.

 And on these two I stamped the words BELIEVE and PEACE

using my StazOn and Pink By Design Stamps.

 They really are fun, go check them out! 

 Ok I am off to tend to the kids, who are fighting like cats and dogs this week.

I think they know school is coming, and believe me so do I! :)

Happy Tuesday friends~

~Quick Update & Features Before Tomorrow's BIG Blog Hop!~

Good morning!!!

How is your week flowing so far?

My week has been filled with decorating the house....

which is always a good thing.

In the Hobbs home we decorate from top to bottom,

it is our tradition to decorate the ceilings....

I know it's alot of work but hubby

LOVES it, I am not lying, he gets done and says "We need to find something

to decorate the ceilings all year because it looks so awesome"

I love that he is so appreciative of the decorating efforts ♥

The whole family gets in on the action....

We have a Country Christmas theme this year...in reds and creams

I have a couple quick updates *in case you missed anything...

~Snowflake Basket Lacy Fun~

Good morning a little late,

I had to take the little one to the Dr. this morning :)

I don't know about you but I am SO ready for winter

and the holiday season. Don't know why but I am ♥

When Samantha Walker showed us her new cut files I jumped on the

chance to make this basket! ♥♥♥ it!

I knew right away what I wanted to do.

Make myself a desktop box for the bits and pieces of lace

I always have sitting there leftover from projects.

Perfect size and cute as a button. It sure makes me dream of snow

and my husband dream of a better vacuum that picks up glitter LOL

Poor Andrew just is in heck this week with all the glitter.

I can honestly say that right now my keyboard is covered

and so is my living room carpet.

The carpet is because the new glitter for the YuDu...

I LOVE IT so much! Wait until you see the Cricut Circle Projects!♥

Ok I am off to help my little man...his brother went back to school

now he is sick as a dog.

So if i am scarce this week I apologize, these kids have been really

ill for 2 weeks now and it's so hard to get everything done.

~Love ya~

~Thanks for popping by~
