Let the Creativeness Soar!

Just wanted to share an update for those participating in the 2011 Handmade Christmas Ornament Exchange, all family matchings have been sent via email. If you have not received an email from me, please contact me and I will send them to you.

Update on the Handmade Christmas Ornament Exchange
Many of us have talked via email but I thought I would be safe and post on the website a note to you to let you know that the 2010 Handmade Christmas Ornament Exchange matchings have been sent via email.

This year, we had an exchange of over 200 handmade ornaments. The girls and I were so excited at the response of this years ornament exchange.

Thank you so much for participating!

Paper Ball Ornament Tutorial

To kick off our tutorials of making handmade ornaments, I wanted to share with you a tutorial that was featured on oh my! handmade goodness. It is an ornament that by changing the color of your scrapbook paper will truly change the look of your ornament. I must admit that I have always loved a paper. I love visiting the hobby stores and just seeing all the different designs, styles, color selections, stationery options that are available. My mind now is just racing of all the different colors of scrapbook paper that we could use to transform into an ornament!

Be sure to click below of how you can make the above paper ornament.
