Christmas!! (Long post)

So I told you after I started to feel better I was going to go crazy and here I went .
This first one here is the pine cone ball ornament from http://inkspirations.blogspot.com/search/label/Christmas
This is just two squares put together into a diamond shape and stamped with the only two Christmas stamps I own lol.


This picture I'm not sure what they are called thou this is origami. I made them in two different sizes and I really love how they turned out.




Here is these star book ornaments that I made I got the tutorial off of http://inkspirations.blogspot.com/search/label/Christmas Its a wonderful site with some great stuff.




Here is the star book ornaments closed you can hang them either way.



This was my attempt at the tag punch flowers. Again as before I don't have these punches so I had to draw up my own and try my best.





Here is another tag punch flower I seen the video tutorial on dawn5377's youtube videos.






I don't remember where I seen this tutorial but its for a 3D Christmas tree for the front of a card. I decided this one was going to hang on the tree this year.







I don't exactly what this is suppose to be, But I can tell you when I was unfolding it to make the circle for the life of me it wouldn't match up in size so I was reduced to try an trim it with scissors finally I just stopped and said OK it looks fine now.






This is my FAVORITE one. Kusudama ball. I suggest everyone making this. It did take me a long time to fold all the pieces required to make it. And a lot of glue but this darling ornament is VERY STURDY. As you hold it you can feel the weight an sturdiness of it. I want to make many more but it does take a longgg time to make. After folding up this one my hand started to ache A A LOT. But it was worth it.







These are Finnish stars. I love how they turned out.










This tree is made from one of the modules of the Kusudama ball up there ^. While making the ball I noticed one of them laying with the wide end down and thought that looks just like a Christmas tree and then this tree was born.








I hope you enjoyed my post. I had said before this year I'm working on making my entire tree nothing more then paper items.


Until next time Happy Stamping


Hugs, Kara
