Having fun with paper...


I love the way these paper ornaments turned out.  I created a scallop in one of my graphics programs, printed it several times on a stained sheet music graphic ( compliments of The Graphics Fairy ), printed on the backside with plain stained sheet music graphic, hand cut everything with embroidery scissors and glued it to cardboard circles cut from a cereal box.  A couple of coats of Sparkle Mod Podge, a rhinestone button center and a hanger made of silky crochet thread completes the look.  The back of the ornament looks almost as good as the front.  Each ornament is approximately 4-1/2" in diameter and they look stunning on my shabby chic themed Christmas tree!
