3-D Paper Ornament

Today I'm the featured designer for Jinger Adams, and I'm sharing a fun 3-D paper ornament that I made with Jinger's beautiful Bella Vita papers.

I started by using my Silhouette Cameo to cut twelve 2 1/2" circles from the music paper.  This paper is great for everyday occasions or for Christmas!  It's double sided, and I turned 6 with the white side up and six with the gold side up, scored them down then middle, and then arranged them in a stack with two white, then two gold, two white, etc.

Next I stapled twice in the crease, once at the top and once at the bottom.

The last step is glue dots.  I placed one about a third of the up from the bottom, and pressed the two sides together.  On the next section I put the glue dot a third of the way down from the top, pressing the two sides together.  I continued around the circle in this manner, alternating the glue dot positions.  Finally, I added a little trim from Jinger's Gypsy Queen collection.

Give Thanks Banner

As a way of thanking her wonderful and supportive fans, Jinger Adams has created an adorable free printable banner!  I'm just getting into using printables, and they do make crafting very easy!  There are two different sized banners to download, and today my friend Liz from Liz's Paper Loft and I are sharing them!  Stop by Liz's blog to see the large banner; what I am showcasing is the small one.

I opened the banner in Silhouette Studio, created cut lines, and was then able to create larger triangles for a background and little scallops for the top!  I cut these with Papertrey Ink cardstock to make the banner nice and sturdy.

After adhering together all of the pieces, I punched holes at the top and ran some hemp from Liz's Paper Loft Boutique through the banner pieces and the buttons that I put in between each piece.  I then added some cute little leaves cut with a die from My Creative Time's Piles of Smiles.  Bows tied with kraft thick hemp twine from Liz's Paper Loft Boutique finished it off!

Now, be sure to head over to Jinger Adams' blog to see where you can download your free banner and then link up the project you create with it!  We're going to have some fun prizes and giveaways!

This adorable pocket was cut with a die from My Creative Time's Fun Pockets stamp set, and the sentiments and hearts came from there too! That's more Gypsy Queen paper you see for the pocket as well!

Jinger Adams Featured Designer

Today I am the featured designer for Jinger Adams, and I have another project using the gorgeous  Gypsy Queen collection for you today.  Don't you just love the rich colors in these patterned papers?

The crowns in the patterned paper inspired me to make a "princess" birthday card, so I used the My Creative Time Scallop & Stitched Circle Die and stamped "Happy Birthday Princess" from the MCT All Around Birthdays stamp set.  Then I used the stitched circle die from MCT's Build a Banner to cut out one of the flowers from the pretty crown paper to put in the center.

The white card base is one of Jinger's fun Pop-Out Window Cards.  I used Silhouette Studio to create a layer, which I cut out of the heart patterned paper.  I then hand cut the little crown and attached it to the card with some embroidery thread.

Here's another look, and below you can see the full paper line.  It will be available soon when Jinger Adams' new website launches!

Jinger Adams Featured Designer

I'm so excited to be the Featured Designer for Jinger Adams today!  I had a lot of fun making this container using Jinger's beautiful Gypsy Queen Papers.  To make the container, I used a Lori Whitlock 3d Box cut from the Silhouette Studio Store, using two of the vibrant patterned papers, one for the base, and another for the lid.

To decorate the lid, I used another patterned paper from Gypsy Queen Papers to make a rosette.  On top of that, I created a little sentiment using the My Creative Time All Around Goodies stamp set and Scallop & Stitched Circle Dies.  A little button topped it off!

Lastly, I took one of the sweet tags that is included in this paper pack and attached it to the container with a bit of hemp.  This is the perfect sized container to fill with some homemade cookies and give to a good friend!

Here's a look at all of the gorgeous papers in this pack:
