Deco Foiling on Handmade Ornaments

Monday, November 14, 2016

Hi friends, today I'm sharing a fun holiday gift idea using DECO FOIL™. I love making handmade ornaments for friends and family! Today I am sharing how to create this  ornament using vinyl and deco foil. Let's get started!

Therm-O-Web Supplies:

DECO FOIL™ TRANSFER SHEETS • RED
ICRAFT MIXED MEDIA ADHESIVE 2.1 FL OZ
12″ Foil Laminator

Other Supplies: Cricut Design Studio, Oracal 651 outdoor vinyl, Glitter Pom-Poms,
 Holiday Ribbon, Craft plastic ornament


Project Instructions: First, choose what you want to place on your ornament. I chose this Make it Now Charger in Design Studio. You are able to customize the project which I love. I sized the sentiment at 2.75 H Adhere a 3x3 piece of Oracle 651 vinyl onto the Cricut mat and cut the image making sure the vinyl setting is used. I chose red vinyl to blend with the foil color I would be using because the back of the image is visible once it's placed on the ornament.

Once the image is cut, use a weeding tool to get rid of the excess vinyl. Next, cut a piece of DECO FOIL™ TRANSFER SHEETS • RED at 3x3. Place the foil over the vinyl and run it thru the 12" laminator. After it has cooled, peel away the foil to reveal the foiled sentiment.

Next cut a 3x3 piece of transfer tape and rub over the sentiment. Gently lift the transfer tape making sure the foiled vinyl sticks. This make take a few tries. Then lay the transfer tape with your design over the clear ornament and burnish with your fingers making sure there are no bubbles.

Fill the ornament with whatever you like using a little bit of ICRAFT MIXED MEDIA ADHESIVE 2.1 FL OZ around the edge of the plastic ornament to glue it. Finish with a festive bow and string to hand on the tree.

Albums Made Easy Monday's will return January 6th

Monday, December 30, 2013

Hello friends! My December was robbed by Jury Duty this year. I spent 3 weeks sitting on a case and then Christmas was a blur. I am so sorry that my Albums Made Easy posts had to take a backseat to my 25 Days of Holiday cards. I had honestly planned to do 2 posts for Mondays but it just didn't happen. So next week I'll begin posting weekly again!

Now today I want to share an album I was asked to create using The North Pole Albums Made Easy Card set.

This album was super easy to create and really fun. I really like the way it tuned out.

Gather up some #8 Ranger Inkssentials Kraft Tags and a variety of Albums Made Easy North Pole Cards. I used a 4x6 card and then a #8 tag with the hole facing out and kept stacking as many as I wanted in the album.

Then I placed them all in my Cinch to make the holes for the binding wire as shown.

Then I used the 3x4 cards to embellish on the #8 Kraft tags. This one was perfect for the cover.

I used Unity Stamp Company SMAK kit stamps, Simon Says Stamp stamps, dies and various embellishments to alter my album. I love that tree from Lil Inker Designs.

Nothing makes an easier embellie than paper punches, twine and buttons.

I ran out of printer ink to add more photos but the idea is to make the album to suit your preference.

That's it for today. See you next Monday!
