3-D Paper Snowflake Ornament

This is the fourth of a series of twelve paper ornaments I’m making this year, one a month so that when December rolls around, I won’t be surprised to discover I’ve done nothing about my wish to have a fully paper crafted Christmas Tree.

WANT TO CRAFT FOR SPRING INSTEAD? TRY THIS OVERSIZE DAISY PROJECT!

When I thought up this idea of making an ornament a month so that I’d have twelve different types for my paper decorated tree, I really didn’t think I’d be crafting snowflakes at the craft table with snow falling outside in April.

But here we are 🙂

This time of year it’s hard not to complain about the weather. I know it won’t make any difference, and I try to keep my cold-weather burnout to myself, but it’s hard. Spoiler Alert: I fail all the time and grouse just like everyone else at work.

But I do have an advantage – as a crafter, I can literally make my own sunshine. Or flowers 🙂 Continue reading…

Paper Christmas Tree Ornament

This is one in a series of twelve paper ornaments I’m making this year, one a month so that when December rolls around, I won’t be surprised to discover I’ve done nothing about my wish to have a fully paper crafted Christmas Tree.

When it comes to Christmas tree lights, you are either on Team All White, or Team All The Colors. While both have their pros and cons, it’s rare you find someone who switches it up year to year.

We’ve always been Team All The Colors at SuzerSpace, and the bigger the bulb, the better.

I’ve recently starting dabbling in watercolors, and have made a bunch of small, cute little paintings.

They aren’t really worth framing. But stacking them on the kitchen table wasn’t really allowing me to enjoy them either.

So I’ve done what any good paper crafter would do – make my own!

EASY TO MAKE PAPER STRIP ORNAMENT

This is one in a series of twelve paper ornaments I’m making this year, one a month so that when December rolls around, I won’t be surprised to discover I’ve done nothing about my wish to have a fully paper crafted Christmas Tree.

I’ve mentioned before that I really like the look of glitter but I don’t like the aftermath (craftermath?). No matter how careful you are, glitter spreads throughout the house, appearing in unlikely places like the ice cube tray and your significant other’s toothbrush. Side note – he never appreciates it.

In the past, I’ve taken to using digital glitter backgrounds provided by some very generous designers.

But the other day, it occurred to me that I probably could make my own, especially if someone gave me the digital recipe, like the tutorial I found that time for gingerbread letters.

Sure enough, I found a really easy and straightforward tutorial. And now I can have glittery images, any color I want, just by choosing it in my Photoshop color picker.

Once I had the technique down, I knew instantly what I needed it for. Glittery Snowflake Ornaments for my tree!
