Hello and welcome to another Freshly Brewed Projects Blog Hop.
This week we are showing you some ways to use the Stampin' Up!® Christmas Designer Series Papers on our projects, and to show how versatile our papers are, not just for cards, I've chosen a Christmas ornament for my project.
This ornament is easy to make out of strips of paper, and I made 2 sizes: - the large ornament starts with a 6 inch square of paper cut into 1/2 inch strips.
The smaller ornament is a 3 inch square cut into 1/4 inch strips.
Basically you can make any size ornament - it just requires the initial square to be cut into 12 equal width strips, so working with 3 inch, 4 inch, 6 inch etc makes it easy to work out the maths.
The Designer Series Paper I've used is Whimsy & Wonder which comes as part of the Whimsy & Wonder Suite on page 24 of the July - December Mini Catalogue .
I chose 3 of the patterns and as you can see the reverse side of the paper, it plays a role in the look of the completed ornament.

Let's take a look at a couple of the steps in making these ornaments.
6 strips are woven together. You can see a quick video on my Youtube channel showing in detail the next steps that are a little hard to explain.
Now it is time for you to hop along to the other demonstrator's blogs to see other creative uses of Christmas DSP. I'm sure you'll be inspired, so leave us a comment when you visit, PM me your address, and I will send you a kit and written instructions for making these ornaments.
ahhhh ... I love these ... this has to be one of the nicest Christmas Paper Packs we've had (mind you I say that every year about our paper packs) Love these stars and remember making them with you ... need to make some more!
ReplyDeleteI agree about the paper. Looking forward to a time when we can craft together again.
DeleteLove these.
ReplyDeleteThank you Lynne. These are some of my favourite papers ever, and I just can't stop making the ornaments, probably because they are so quick and easy!
