Day 18 – Holiday Card Series – Ornaments
Good morning, all! I have another ornament card for you today. It looks similar to other ornament cards i’ve made, but I think the main concept can be used over and over, changing it to go with whatever supplies you have on hand. :)
For these ornaments, I used paper from Fancy Pants Design’s Christmas Magic kit (which is back in stock at TwoPeas, so if you were looking for the transparency from Day 9, you can buy it in this kit). There’s a really pretty patterned paper in the kit with these ornaments on it. They were just calling out to be cut out for a card, wouldn’t you say? :) I also paired it up with some Silver Liquid Pearls.
Enjoy!
NOTE: I’ve received a LOT of questions about the music included in the videos. It is a 10-second clip of royalty-free music I purchased online. It’s not a real song from an album. :)

Ornaments – Papertrey Ink cardstock in Ripe Avocado; Fancy Pants Christmas Magic collection pack; Ranger Liquid Pearls in Silver; We R Memory Keepers Corner Chomper; White thread.

November 25th, 2009 at 6:47 amI love this card because of the pirl dots and the holiday feel this card gives to who is looking at it
thanks for shearing all the info with us the whachers
If only my cut-out ornaments looked so perfect LOL it’s a lovely card and great design idea – Have a fun Thanksgiving (in case I don’t get a chance to check your blog tomorrow …) Marta
November 25th, 2009 at 7:01 amI’ve got to get my hands on those liquid pearls! I love the idea with the string too!
Here’s a “Happy Thanksgiving!!”, just in case I can’t get on tomorrow morning. If anything I’ll just say it again! :P
November 25th, 2009 at 7:02 amGreat idea to use Liquid Pearls…I remember when you shared the “flick” tip to remove the peak! Have a Happy Turkey Day! Hey, what color are you wearing on your nails? It looks like it would wear well for someone like me with fair skin.
November 25th, 2009 at 7:14 amLove the thread! Very nice!
November 25th, 2009 at 7:16 amI like how you made the ornaments pop with the dimentionals..gotta get some of those.
November 25th, 2009 at 7:27 amLike the simplness of this card. Very Lovely.
November 25th, 2009 at 7:39 amLove this card!! Is the thread DMC floss?
I believe so, yes. :)
Lovely card, such a cute idea to use real thread and tie those cute little bows, Jo x
November 25th, 2009 at 7:54 amGorgeous card!! I did this technique with the string last year after watching one of your videos. So fun and festive! Thanks Kristina.
November 25th, 2009 at 8:25 amBeautiful card.
November 25th, 2009 at 8:29 amAnother winner Kristina! I think the faux stitching just sets everything off. I admire your ability in cutting things out – mine never looks as good as yours.

Terrific card! Love that you’ve used pp – a good reminder that basic supplies with a great imagination can make for a very pretty card (not just the latest/greatest (often expensive) tool)! Thanks for the ongoing inspiration!
