When looking to capture a moment in time this holiday season, skip all the photo designs and instead focus on the silhouette! See how to turn a simple paper mache ornament into a memorable keepsake when creating a silhouette Christmas ornament. If you remember, this past Mother's Day I gifted my mom a silhouette frame of my daughters and nephews. While the names were underneath each figure, it was obvious to those who know our family who was who. I had turned this concept into an offering in my Etsy shop and was honored to do a bunch for Mother's Day gifts in the weeks following and lots are headed out for Christmas too! Since I already have the designs, I decided to make another special Christmas gift featuring these simple silhouettes for my mom. First I had the girls paint a paper mache ornament in the color of their choice: pink. After it dried I went over to my Cricut Explore Air 2 and uploaded my silhouette designs. I had read a lot about doing vinyl projects on canvas and ... Continue Reading...

To learn more about my affiliates, please review my disclosure policy here. Teachers don't want more mugs or candles. Ones who have been teaching for years probably have all the framed crayon letters and apple everything. This Christmas, consider helping them to help fill their Christmas tree with a school mascot ornament teacher gift that they will cherish! I have no doubt that teachers love their students but I highly doubt they want pictures of your kid hung up all over their home or classroom. Every year I give teachers a gift card and try to gift a little something that they might find useful or appreciate. This year I will be gifting Hailey's daycare teachers with Target gift cards on these reindeer gift card holders as I love me a pun! And while I'll be gifting the same for Brielle's kindergarten teacher, I will be doing it on these cute "All About my Teacher" gift card holders. I decided to make a school mascot ornament with the help of my new Cricut machine to coordinate with the gift card teacher gift! First, I asked Brielle to ... Continue Reading...
