I used the Dare 2B Artzy Penguin Fun Set and a teeny piece of Dare 2B Artzy Winter Plaid Paper along with a $1 wood ornament from Michael's to create a Christmas tree ornament.


First, I painted the whole ornament with Tim Holtz Distress Paint in Festive Berries.  I then used on of Tim's Stencils to add the smattering of Tim Holtz Distress Paint in Picket Fence.  I cut a small piece of the D2BA paper and glued it on along with one of those adorable penguins, the chunk of ice and the sentiment.  I finished it off by adding some seam binding ribbon to the top and some white lace to the edge.


I wish I had my tree up, so I could get a picture of it on my tree.  Yes, indeed, I would have my tree up 12 months a year if my family would let me!  LoVe Christmas!

Thanks for stopping by!  Back to Dare 2B Artzy with you to see all the lovely Christmas goodness in their shop!

Happy Hopping!

Craftily yours,

Karen
