Die-Versions Holiday Icon Ornaments

Happy Friday, everyone!! It's my turn to post on the Die-Versions blog HERE. I'm featuring dies from the latest Christmas in July release.


I love the Holiday Icon Ornaments dies from this release. Like their name, they make perfect ornaments for the Christmas tree. So I created a few different ornaments to share with you.


First I cut them in cardboard so they would have some weight and then cut two more layers in double sided sticky tape for each side. If you joined us for our hop last week, you saw the amazing projects that were created by combining Die-Versions dies with Sparkle N Sprinkle Glitters and Embossing Powders. I use the awesome SNS glitter for the ornaments. To get the two different colors on some of the ornaments, I just removed the sticky tape covering the icon, coated it with glitter, and then removed the outside border and added a different color.


I also created 3 dimensional ornaments by cutting four layers of the dies, scoring them in half and attaching them together.


On a couple of the images like the reindeer, one of the layers had to be cut with the designer paper up so that it would align with they were glued together (if that makes sense!!).

Thanks so much for stopping by!! :)

  5. These are wonderful ornaments. What machine did you use to cut them with? Do they cut easily in one pass? You mentioned you used cardboard so I'm curious as to details since some dies will not cut thru cardboard easily.

  15. YAY, more Christmas! :o) My sweetest friend, your ornaments are gorgeous! I love the dies themselves, but especially love how you used them. The abundance of sparkle is perfect for the holidays. The two-toned sparkly ones are my favorite! (So love that glitter.) The 3D ornaments are stunning! You did such an amazing job with them. They add such dimension and whimsy. All of your ornaments will so beautifully decorate your home. :o) Gorgeous project, my dearest Lisa!
