NESTIES CHRISTMAS TREE PAPER PINS AND ORNAMENT

As mentioned in the previous post, these are Paper Pins made with the Nesties smallest Christmas tree die. I die cut two pieces of green card stock and one piece of chip board and modge podged them together and let dry. Next I modge podged the front of the pin and added seed beads, thread and paper stars. Dab a little extra modge podge to secure your decorations and let dry. Last, I modge podged the back, cut a strip of card stock small enough to fit a safety pin and adhered the pin, in an upright position. This is easy and fun. I have been wearing one for a few days now and it is holding up just fine.


This hanging ornament (front and back showing here) uses the middle sized Christmas tree Nestie die cut, and the beautiful matching image is from SparkleNSprinkle.com. First, I stamped the image on white card stock in red ink and then in green ink. Next I die cut both images, added two stars and ribbon. The edges are inked and the tree is sponged with green ink. This is fast and easy and could also make a cute gift tag.
Thanks for stopping by!
