Ornament Swap Numero Uno

I am blessed with some FABULOUS friend who are blessed with so many different talents.

One group of friends has gathered together in the recent years to have a cookie/ornament swap.

I was not able to attend this party this year because LB had a basketball game that was rescheduled for that night.

So, I sent my ornaments with my friend Sandy.

Here is my story behind my ornament:

I was cleaning out my craft room and realized I had entirely too many things in it!

So I decided I would not buy ONE thing for my ornaments.

Everything came from my craft room. I found cookie cutters (who has cookie cutters in their craft room?) that I think I had bought for our annual cookie swap.  I had plenty of scrapbook paper and even found silver embellishments to add to them.  I used E600 glue to attach the ornaments to the paper.  Once the paper and glue had dried, I carefully cut it out.  This was MUCH easier than cutting them out then attaching.  Using the same glue, I then attached the embellishment to the the cookie cutter.  Finally, I attached some craft twine to the back in order for my friends to hang them on their tree.

I was pretty please with how they turned out!

LB made this one for a school project.

 Here are the ones my oober talented friends made for me.
