Christmas is getting closer...

Next month at AZ Scrapbooking in Green Valley, AZ we instructors were asked to teach easy Christmas gifts. Well, I think mine are rather easy yet cute. I'll be teaching wine glass charms, a photo holder, and a candy bouquet. I got the first 2 done but I will post the photo holder now using the cool Christmas tree from our Jingle Jolly set.


The cutie in the picture is our middle granddaughter, Rylie.


Here's a close-up. The paper is by Basic Grey. I stamped the tree with Noir PH ink and colored with Copic markers Y35, R37, and Y06. I also used Glossy Accents on the ornaments and the Stardust Clear Gel pen on the star. I painted a 1 1/2" wood block with white gesso and some green paint then drilled a hole with my Dremel. I did change out the tree for a stamp purchased at the store since I have to use their products in my classes. I'll post it when I do a "group" photo.
