Mini Rosette Christmas Trees

Hello my lovely crafty friends. I hope you've all had a super Christmas. We had a fabulous time!

I love Tim Holtz's 12 Tags of Christmas but never found time to join in this year. He made some rosette trees and I managed to make a few and gave them as little extra gifts over our festive travels. I didn't get to photo all of them as they were made very last minute as needed,but here are 2 I would like to share just before the festive season finishes!

Christmas Tree Ornaments

Hi,today is a new challenge over at Scraptastic Monday. Challenge #6 is to to make a Christmas tree ornament,card or tag and it must have a Christmas ball and some bling.

We would love you to join us and use one of Cindy's fabulous digis which you can get from here but it's not a requirement.

I decided to use Cindy's Sweet Angels Set and make tree decorations. This image was so easy to use for this.

I love these digis and coloured with promarkers.Added lots of glamour dust for their halos and wings. Glossy accents on the baubles and outlined with silver krylon pen.

I added beads onto some wire I curled and a bit of tinsel ribbon.

I sandwiched the wire between front and back layers.

Check out all the beautiful ornaments over at Scraptastic Monday and I am looking forward to seeing your creations.

Have a great day.
