Merry Monday: Gleaming Ornament

Merry Monday!  When I saw the new Holiday Catalog, the project that came to mind to create first was another 3D star ornament like this one (can't believe it has already been 7 years since I created that one by the way!?!!) but made so much easier with the Gleaming Ornaments Punch Pack and beautiful new Brightly Gleaming Specialty Paper:

The die cut in the center is cut with the Flourish Dies from Copper Foil Paper.  I also added some stretched out strips of Copper Trim around the star.

Here's the back of the ornament:

Looking forward to making some more of these!  Hope you are inspired, too.  Please leave me a comment or send me an email if you'd like to make some with me.

On My Mind -- July 2019 Paper Pumpkin Cards

Happy Wednesday!  Have some cards I created with the July 2019 "On My Mind" Paper Pumpkin kit to share with you today.  Some I made just as the directions instructed, and for others, I cut up envelopes from the kit to use the pretty papers inside them, did a bit of sponging to create some sunsets, and mixed in stamped images from the Daisy Lane Stamp Set, Sailing Home Bundle, and Detailed Band Dies:

These were so much fun to put together!  If you'd like to get in on the fun of Paper Pumpkin, be sure to click here for more information or to subscribe!
