Marriage First Christmas Keepsake

Hey There,

I hope you are having the most wonderful of weekends.   I have a quick share for you today.

I just finished decorating our Christmas tree and decided to put together a Marriage First Christmas Keepsake ornament for my Son, Mitch and my new daughter-in-law Jamie.  They were just married in August so this is their first Christmas as man and wife.

The ornament was purchased at Walmart.   All you need is a clear ornament.  I found this one with all the bling on the top.   I took their wedding invitation and sliced it in pieces and then rolled each piece around a chop stick and put the invite pieces inside the ornament and shook it.  Most of the pieces were cut about 1/4″ wide.  I cut the pieces so you could read the lines of text.   Their invite had their initials and names in larger text so I cut those pieces wider so I didn’t cut into the text.

It turned out cute.  I hope if brings fond memories to them year after year.

This keepsake ornament idea would be great for Baby’s first Christmas using a copy of a birth announcement.

Now, Mitch and Jamie’s ornament turned out so cute, I decided to make a few for my tree.  I used designer series paper and silver glitter paper to make my strips for these.  It’s so sad that the photos don’t do them justice.  You just can’t see the sparkle.  Anyhow, you get the idea.  It’s a great way to use up some of the scraps you have been hoarding.   Don’t deny it, you know you have a little stack of scraps somewhere.

May your weekend be super fun!

Until my next post. . . . . .

Hugs,
