Shaker

 Howdy Crafters ~ I have been taking a break from posting my creations and entering challenges. However, this past week I found a video at TaylorMade in which she created a shaker tag. [She also has a challenge so I will be entering this tag in her challenge.]

I followed along on her instructions as she created her tag, and pulled items from my own stash to create my tag.  I ended up making 3 tags! 

This is the first tag I created. 

My Tag has a Tim Holtz Paper Doll -three buttons -Snowflake,  Cardinal and Christmas Tree, Burlap Merry Christmas Ribbon, 3d Merry Christmas Chip Board embellishment, and sequins behind the acrylic shaker rectangle.  

I added TH Distress Stickles along the bottom and on the gals shoes.

This is a layered tag in which I used recycled cardboard for the tag and frame.  Brick and Stone cardstock were also used.

It was a fun even - Taylor Made has 12 weeks of Christmas you Tube videos in progress.  You can also get a free download.  Merry Christmas ~ Gail~

Cabin and Tree ornament

 This ornament is by Suzanne Cannon. It is unique in that it has this circle platform in the middle with a snow base that is folded up on both ends to insert the 3 trees - which also has a base. I like the snow roof for this cute cabin.  I added twine and wrote 2021 on the front.

Christmas Ornament

For Day 30 of Beccy's Holiday Card/Project November challenge - The challenge is to DO WHAT YOU LOVE

I enjoy making TAGS and ORNAMENTS - every year we place a NEW dated ornament on our tree - 

In the past, we have purchased so many Hallmark type ornaments and some are animated - but the last few years I have created my own ornament and dated it with a Marker or Die cut- such as this one shown in the photo.  So I did what I loved -  and created this Ornament for 2020.

Thanks for stopping by!

GD ~ Catch The Bug~ Tutorial

Howdy Crafters ~ This is my last posting for Catch The Bug - Bugaboo Digital Images - I have had a fun adventure!  Thanks Tammy~ Jodie ~ and the DT for having me on board for January and February of 2018.

Crafters, I hope you had a chance to enter the challenges for these past two months

 ~ And I hope you were one of the winners! Happy Dance time for sure!~

For this posting I have a Tutorial on how to make a 

Christmas Tree Ornament using Bugaboo Digital Stamps ~ 

Thanks for dropping by and have a blessed week!

Here is my Quick and Easy Step by Step Ornament Tutorial

Step One: 
* Select one of your favorite Bugaboo Digitals - I like Snowmen so I am using the Snowman Peeker from the Goofy Snowmen Set - Click HERE to get yours.

* I sized This Snowman Peeker at  1 1/2 inches x 1 1/2 inches.  Since I own a Portrait Die Cutting Machine, I brought the image into Silhouette Design Studio to create a Print N Cut image - however the image can be fussy cut with your scissors if you cannot do a print n cut in your machine.

Next, I selected 3 Circle Dies and 3 Different Cardstock

* My Circle dies are Sizzix Brand Scallop dies and the Cardstock I selected is Black, Blue Check, and White.

* I ran the dies and cardstock through my Cuttlebug to make the cuts.

Next,  * I colored by my image with Memento Markers.

* White Puffy Paint was used on the Ball of the Hat & Orange Stickles Glitter Glue on the Nose

Next - I placed a piece of Scotch Foam tape on the black circle cardstock [This will be the top stack and my Peeker Snowman will be adhered on top of the Foam Tape.

Next - 
* I Stapled a piece of Glitter Red Ribbon to the Largest Circle die cut -blue Checked Patterned.

*  the white cardstock middle layer will cover the staple

The Final STEPS: [layering of the prepared circles]

* Glue the White cardstock to the Blue Check using an ATG [or other adhesive you prefer]

* Glue the black cardstock to the White cardstock circle

* Add the Digital Peeker Snowman to the Scotch Foam tape on the black cardstock

* Note:  Make sure the wet items are dried on your colored image and if you used any Stickles, etc. on the digital stamp before adhering it to the middle circle.

And here is the Finished Ornaments - Da! Da!

I will be hanging this cutie on my Christmas tree in December! 

Remember, you can use all types of Bugaboo images with this tutorial to make door hanger ornaments for your home decor as well. 

I hope you have fun making your own Ornaments [Christmas theme or otherwise] - blessings and thanks again for dropping by!
