Well, at least it's still the weekend when I'm posting this! :) I've had this idea on my list ever since I got the Simply Leaves bundle. That leaf punch made me think of Christmas bulbs, so this is what I ended up with! The "string" is a balloon string from the Balloon Festoon dies.
Lots of punching and re-attaching pieces to make these light bulbs, but I really love the end result.
Paper Measurements:
- Shaded Spruce: 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"
- Basic White: (2) 4" x 5 1/4"
- Daffodil Delight, Poppy Parade, Granny Apple Green, Blueberry Bushel, Pumpkin Pie, Basic Black - scraps to punch light bulbs and die-cut strings
Stagger your lightbulbs along your string.
Finish off with plenty of Basic Rhinestones. You could also add some Crystal Effects to the light bulbs to make them all shiny. Stampin' Up retired Crystal Effects a long time ago, but you might have some in your stash, or you might be able to find something similar elsewhere.
Supplies you'll need to create these (Stampin' Up, unless otherwise noted. Items may be retired.):
Stamps: Sweetest Star
Ink: Shaded Spruce
Paper: Daffodil Delight, Poppy Parade, Granny Apple Green, Blueberry Bushel, Pumpkin Pie, Basic Black, Basic White
Other: Simply Leaves punch, Balloon Festoon dies, Basic Rhinestones
If you are a Hallmark Christmas movie fan - all of the NEW Christmas movies start THIS FRIDAY, October 16th! I can't wait!
