I am a fan of mini Christmas trees and shrink plastic is the perfect way to create homemade ornaments for them! I also like Christmas trees with themes, and since I grew up near the beach and love scuba diving and the ocean, it really is no surprise that I reached for a mermaid stamp, is it?
Time to play...
Supplies:
The Femmes Mermaid Ocean Scene Large Rubber Stamp
Shrink Plastic
Archival Ink, black
Stamping platform
Sharpie markers
Crop A Dile
Beads
Jute
Directions:
- Stamp image onto shrink plastic using permanent black ink.
- Use permanent markers to color on the reverse side of the image. (I used Sharpies - so many colors and you can buy them everywhere!)
- Punch holes as desired and then bake according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Add sparkle and texture with beads and a tassel.
What kind of a themed tree do you want to create? Your stamps probably reflect your interests - I think I feel a cat ornament coming on...
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you find some time to play today!
