Hello! I hope you are having fun today looking at all of the wonderful Unity inspiration! I got my big box of {ippity} yesterday and couldn't wait to play! The Kissmas and Mistletoe set makes me sooooooo happy! I love it! I couldn't wait to pair that snowman image with my d'vine swirl CB folder! I also made a matching ornament to go with the card. I took some photos for a quick little tutorial!
First you need to find an old spool from ribbon. I got this idea from Patti, the owner of Paper Maniac! What a great way to recycle those ribbon spools! If you are like me, you probably go through ALOT of these! I used my nesties to create my circles in brown and kraft-to match my card. The snowmen are stamped in ridinghood red. I sponged brown ink around the edges and over the raised swirls and also on my snomen.
Now you use some tacky tape to tape a band of ribbon around the spool. I created a loop on one end so that I could create my hemp twine ornament hanger.
