Wow! I cannot believe it is December already. Time is flying by the quicker we get to Christmas and the end of the year.

Well its time for another challenge over at The Stamp Man and the theme this fortnight is "Ornaments" chosen by Jill. It can be an altered item made into an ornament, table decoration or even an ornament shaped card, and it doesn't have to be Christmas themed. Just dig out those festive supplies and have some fun!

For my project I chose to make some paper ornaments using Nestabilities dies from Spellbinders. These are really easy to create. Just cut 3 of the larger Nestie shape and fold each in half adhere one back side of each to another then adhere the final 2 side. the inside is a smaller Nestie die decorated and adhered by the sides inside each larger Nestie. the beads are on pins and held in place with a drop of glue. My complete materials list may be found below.

Now hop of over and see the rest of the fab projects created by my team mates at The Stamp Man then we would like to see yours.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

Love it!! I almost used this die too but decided to do something else. The shape is so suited for an ornament :)

These are gorgeous, Angela. They remind me of chinese lanterns. It's amazing what you can do with Nesties isn't it.
hope you have a lovely weekend.
