Stamping With Friends Blog Hop - "Anything But a Card"

Saturday, 2 November 2024

Today I'm hopping with the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop. For this Blog Hop the theme is "Anything but a card". I got the idea for these Wooden Christmas Ornaments from Susan Wilson Easter at a recent Demonstrator event on Vancouver Island and fell in love with it.

Susan used the Sophisticated Sled Bundle for her ornament. I decided to use the adorable Reindeer Days Suite for mine. Aren't these so adorable! and perfect to brighten up your tree this holiday season!

The first one uses the gorgeous Real Red paper with the bells and of course the bells and holly to accent it. I paired the Reindeer Days Suite with the Christmas Labels Bundle for the sentiments!

The second ornament uses the adorable reindeer dies and wreath! This is my favourite!

I bought the 4" wooden circles from Amazon and then used the largest die from the Spotlight on Nature dies to cut a circle. So many options to decorate them!

You can find all of the supplies for this project in my Online Store.

Interested in the tutorial for 6 ornaments? Buy it here!

Now it's time to be inspired by all of the Projects in our Blog Hop!

I hope you have been inspired!
