Sweet Stamps- Ornament Challenge



  This week at the Sweet Stamps Challenge we are making Ornaments- we want to see ornaments or an ornament on your project.

 I found this idea for the rolled paper star on Pintrest- but did not  'pin' it, so I cannot give you the link (if I find it, I will.......).
I had a paper mache star ornament, I painted it white then added Bo Bunny DSP with Gel Medium.


 On the other side (which will be the front) I stamped  the Stained Glass Madonna and Child image and embossed it with Queen's Gold embossing Powder.  Next, I painted the image with Creative Inspiration Paints:


 I love the shimmer....wish it showed up better.......


I made a color chart for the CI paints- so I put the ornament next to my color chart to choose the color for the border and added paper rolls:
 I decided Beige CI paint would work the best for the look I wanted.

 I cut up pages from a magazine and used a skewer to roll them......

I added the rolled paper around the edges and used gel medium to attach them.

 Once done, I added a bow with gold ribbon and added a star- it is metal and was an antique bronze color to begin with. I painted on Creative Inspiration paint in a bright Yellow- lovin the way it looks.....

Here are the Sweet Stamps products I used on my card:
