Chevron Craze

I have been working on painting ornaments.

They are glass ornaments that I have been painting with acrylics and then sealing with a gloss clear coat.

I decided to try a chevron pattern since it is so popular.

I used a green and white to make the chevron pattern.

On top of the chevron pattern I drew a silhouette of a reindeer and painted it in with red.

The result is a fun, modern Christmas ornament!

Vintage Inspired Christmas Cards

I got some really cute chipboard Christmas reindeer, ornaments, snowmen, and doves from Michael's.

These embellishments inspired me to create some vintage inspired Christmas cards.

I had a Christmas paper pad that I had ordered from Oriental Trading several years ago.

I flipped through that, finding paper that would fit my vintage theme.

I had some country Christmas ribbon that worked well with the look I wanted.

I ran the ribbon across each of my cards.

I then used vintage like tags and tied a bow on them with twine.

I then adhered the chipboard embellishments to the tags.

Pretty red Christmas flowers with gold brads add a little extra "pop".

Each card features a Christmas sentiment that are puffy stickers.

I added in a few rhinestones on each card for a little extra bling.

Cards, such as the ones above, can be found in my Etsy store
