One of my favorite things to be working on is glass ornaments. I have been making tons of them and even better I have been selling a bunch as well. I am a hair stylist (hence the scissor Bella) and the 2 owners of the salon I work at have been so nice to let me set up a little area with my goodies! So as a little thank you I made them each an ornament! the one I practiced on (Bella in blue) came out cute so she is going on my tree!
(It is sure hard to get a good shot of clear ornaments, so forgive the pictures.)
After I stamped Scissor Bella on the transparency paper (using stazon) I let it dry, then flipped it over to color it. I have found that paint markers/pens work the best. They give you the most vibrant color. I then stamped little snowflakes and embossed them so that when I was putting it into the ornament the side would not rub it off. I hate having to pull it back out and redo it!

So I made one brunette...
and one blond just like my bosses! Oh they turned out so cute! Naturally I had to put little Santa hats on them, I just drew them in with the paint pens.
Did I mention it was hard to takes pictures of the ornaments...well it is even more difficult with a crabby cat sitting in your way!
She not only likes to be the center of attention...
She gets irritated when she can't play with things!
Enjoy your Sunday everyone!

There's no doubt I love cats and they tend to be annoyed at not being the center of attention. lol.
