Gift Giving: Pet Ornament and Card

 



Working on some holiday gifts! When we moved this Summer, we needed to ensure that we found a new place to board our furbaby, and we are so glad we found one nearby; they love her and take great care of her. They are definitely on my nice list, and I wanted to make sure I showed them that we appreciate them!

Supplies:
  • Ceramic Disc Ornament (I got these at Michaels last year and then bought a bunch more on sale after Christmas).
  • Black Vinyl (I used Cricut Glossy Black)
  • Ribbon
  • Pet Sentiments (Creative Fabrica)
  • Coordinating Scrapbook Papers
  • Transparency
  • Paw Jeweled Sticker (Jolies, Michaels)
  • Digital Cutting Machine (Cricut Explore 2)


I removed the ribbon that came w/ the ornament and then cleaned it with alcohol to remove any residue. I downloaded a bundle of Pet Sentiments from Creative Fabrica, chose one for the ornament, sized in Cricut Design Space, and cut using Cricut Glossy Black Vinyl. 


Weeded the vinyl and applied the transfer tape then applied to the ornament. To finish, added a piece of ribbon to use to hang. 


But what's a gift without a card? I grabbed some papers from my stash, used another sentiment from the Creative Fabrica bundle, cut more vinyl, and applied to a piece of transparency cut to size.  





Using Cricut Design Space, I made a rectangle shape with a circle cutout as shown, then layered background paper, transparency, and top. 


Admittedly, I goofed on the "O" when weeding so I added a rhinestone as the hole in them middle, ad finished with some paw shaped rhinestone stickers I found at Michaels on clearance!

Holiday 2020: Pet Lover "Paw-norments"

 


Our furbaby is such a huge part of our life! Huge, literally because she's over 120 lbs but huge in the place she has in our heart. I know this is true for others as well so I made a few of these "Paw-ornaments" aka "Pawnorments" for friends. They're actually frames so you can have your furbaby on your tree or wherever! 

Supplies: (All of these supplies are from Michaels) 
  • Wood Paw Ornament Frame 
  • Acrylic Paints
  • Mirror Sequins

Like so many Makers, I pick up things post-season when they're on sale. That's how I keep my stash replenished! 


The "Kids Crafts" at Michaels are some of my favorites. I found this post season last year. Simple and easy to alter or glam up! I've seen similar there this year. 


Pop out the center and you're ready to paint! 


I did a couple of coats of black Craftsmart paint, front and back.


Then added polka dots with white paint ( also Craftsmart). 


I love these Mirror Sequins! There's something about them being so bright and shiny! I added these around the paws. 


To finish, I used an extra large jump ring to attach a white glittered jingle bell and then printed a picture of my big girl sized to fit! 


It was hard not to get the glare but you get the idea! She was so good while I was decorating, just laying and watching what was going on. 

And of course, this would make a great kid's craft but since my kid is in grad school...
