Merry Christmas!I am participating in my very first blog hog. My new friends on the scrapbooking message board were kind enough to let me join in. I hope I do this right.
I am so excited. I can't wait to see what wonderful Christmas ideas these very talented ladies share.
My Christmas craft is this simple stamped ornament. I have been making these very simple ornaments the last several years. They are always a big hit. Each year I change the stamp I use.
Trust me you have to give these puppies a try. They are so economical and easy.... A another bonus, you don't have a huge supply list.
Supplies: Stazon Ink and cleaner, ceramic ornament, holiday stamp, and scrap ribbon.
Directions: Stamp image on ceramic ornament. Let dry and string with ribbon.
Tip: Be careful when stamping the image. The ceramic ornament is a very slick surface and can smudge easily if you twist or move the stamp slightly when stamping. Also, let the ornament dry overnight before stringing with ribbon.
Shopping Guide: I buy the ornaments early in the year at Michael's for around $1.25. If I wait to long they tend to sell out quick.
You'll find the stamp set here http://rjnx9.ut464.servertrust.com/Santa_I_Believe_p/ss085.htm.
Thank you so much for stopping by. Please be sure to leave a comment. As a special thank you one randomly selected person will recieve one OF these hand stamped ornaments.
So, up, up and away off to the next Christmas blog stop http://allsmilesandsunshine.blogspot.com/. No worries if you get lost just just head back to the first post (Amanda's) http://www.lovejoypaper.com/.
Merry Christmas! Traci
