Holiday Ornament Tutorial by Pinky
November 27, 2017
Welcome to the holiday craft season everyone, hello Clear Scraps friends, it is Pinky today with another fun Clear Scraps project, actually it is 2 projects that I have a step by step tutorial for!
Let me share how I created these 3 ornaments today, including a Shaker Ornament!
For the Shaker Ornament I used the Clear Scraps Mini Shaker X-MAS TREE.
I began with the acrylic window, so it had ample time to dry, I used the 6" Nordic Snowflake Mascil/Stencil and Art Gloss Gel to create the snowflakes on the cover, after removing the protective film.
I used a little bit of glitter sprinkled on and set aside to dry.
After that I took some patterned paper and covered the chipboard base using Beacon adhesive. Trimmed off the excess paper.
I coated the front chipboard with red glitter and sealed it using a spray sealant.
I layered the chipboard onto the base, then put a tsp of sequins in.
Then after the acrylic cover dried, I assembled the entire shaker!
Now here is my "OOPS" moment, I should've inserted ribbon to hang it. I forgot. YES I forgot! haha
So don't forget that or you will be gluing ribbon onto the back.
Now for the other two ornaments, these were so fun to make.
I used the X-masSwirl Bulbs Chipboard Embellishments. Since they are two sided, I spray painted both side in a silver spray paint (Krylon).
After that I handprinted each side with a blue and create color and dusted with glitter. I set it aside to dry, then repeated on the other side.
You can see I left the silver top. When all was dried I punched a hole into the top and used a pretty ribbon for the "hanger".
I hope you enjoyed my tutorial today, I really enjoyed making them.
Happy Holidays friends,
