Glitter Ornaments

I really love this project.  They are so simple and turn out so beautiful.  I think I will probably do some every year.  These are for my neices and nephews, and the kids I babysit.

These are so cute!!! What cartridge did you use for the names? Thank you.....

Denise Hill said...

There is a video on the Christmas with the cricut blog.

I used scal, not a cartridge. The font for the girls names is cac pinafore, and the boys is calligrapher.

Did you use paper or vinyl for the names on the ornaments??

Denise Hill said...

Some are vinyl, some are just white contact paper. The contact paper actually went on easier!

Hey there, I found your blog on the cricut website. Im now a proud owner of a cricut machine that I got in the states for a rocking deal. I cant wait to try it. I love how those ornaments came out.

These are so beautiful Denise! I'm going to try this next year!

You did a wonderful job on these!!! I got my ornaments mostly glittered but I never got the names cut out so I guess it will be for next year! Love the contact paper idea! I think I'm going to try that.

I used the martha stewart iridescent fine glitter. I used a coupon at Michales and bought a 12 pack.
