Years ago I remember Martha calling vintage glass ornaments, "Gaudy Balls". These remind me of those:
My Time Made Easy generously supplied me with the digis to make my card, since I am privileged to be on the Pretty Patterns Design Team for MTME!
Here is the sketch from MTME for you to use:
And here's my card:
I printed the sentiment directly on the background, and used a matching patterned paper to make tiny slivers of paper behind the ornaments.
I then printed the ornaments on white cs and colored them with Prismacolor Pencils and mineral spirits. They are strung with waxed flax. I attached three gems from Hobby Lobby, and ribbon from there, too. the cardstock is CTMH. I used Ranger Stickles to make the ornaments gaudy.
Hope you like it.
I am entering this card in some challenges:
1. Crimbo Crackers -Christmas anything goes
2. Aud Sentiments - Bingo (I used first vertical row)
