Keepsakes Christmas Ornament

Winter & Christmas Card & Project IdeasI am finally posting the Ornament I made using the Keepsakes Ornament Bundle.  It was pretty easy to make.  I watched a video by Angie Kennedy Juda and changed only a couple of things.  Pretty amazing!

I just wished I had TWO of the Silicone Craft Sheets when I made it! I do wish they would make some Silicone Craft Gloves or Fingers too.  I did feel like a gluey mess and I did burn my fingers a couple of times with the hot glue.  And next time I will remember to put the Baker’s Twine in right after I put the Ornament pieces together!  But I am happy the way the Ornament turned out!  We are making it at my class this Friday.  Wish you were here!
