JustRite 12 Weeks of Christmas Blog Hop #2

Welcome to JustRite Stampers’ newest Wednesday feature, 12 Weeks of Christmas Blog Hops #2! Every Wednesday up until Thanksgiving some of your favorite designers will be joining some of the JustRite design team for a series of Christmas blog hops, showcasing JustRite’s entire Christmas Collection of stamps! This week, it’s the Stamper’s DreamJustRite Inspiration blog!
design team! So mark your calendars for Wednesdays at 9am Central for great Christmas gift, card & project ideas, starting at the
JustRite Inspiration Blog!

Today, I have a fun and quick gift idea to share with you.
I found these cute candy Christmas ornaments that hold a gift card at the $ store and I gave it a little handmade touch using JustRite Stampers stamps. To start I stamped one of the borders and centers from JB-08780 A Merry Little Christmas with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto white cardstock. The stamp set includes 10 Designer Centers and 10 Interchangeable Borders and fits JB-08115 Wood 1-5/8 Round Stamper.Next I colored the images and border with Copic markers. I used the S4-114 Standard Circles Large die #3 and S4-115 Petite Scalloped Circles Large die #2 to cut/emboss the circle diecuts.To add a little sparkle I used a red Spica glitter pen to go over all of the areas colored with red.I added 3D Foam Squares from SCRAPBOOK ADHESIVES By 3L™ to the back of the diecut and adhered it to the front of the ornament.Here is a close-up.Here's a look at the inside of the Christmas ornament. I added some white crinkle paper and a gift card. Simple, quick, easy and cute--plus it's two gifts in one!
