Let's get started !!
Today I have a combination card and Christmas ornament for you. Did you play with Shrinky Dinks when you were a kid? I did. And they have apparently had a comeback -- although now they're not necessarily called Shrinky Dinks. The sheets are called Shrinkable Plastic. Both my card and the ornament were made with the same stamp. You can see how much the shrinkable plastic does indeed shrink when heat is applied. I used my embossing heat gun and anchored the Santa by putting my piercing tool into the hole to keep it from moving all over the counter as I added the heat. You have to make sure that, if you plan to have a hole in the top of the ornament, the hole needs to be punched before you add heat!
Here's the Design Team members celebrating Christmas in July.
Enjoy the Hop. Come back each day for more Christmas fun. We hope to inspire you to start your Christmas cards and projects. Get to work on the tutorials, show us what you made and check back on August 15 to see if you are a winner.
