A Colorful Christmas

 Our family Christmas theme this year was 'Color'.  Kind of a tough challenge - each family took a color on the color wheel and then used the colors to each side for their color assignment.  Of course, anything goes and I didn't want to be limited to 3 colors.

Using paint chips from the paint store, a paper punch, a gold paper bow, and my favorite 'Stampin Up' stamp set, I created this color wheel Christmas Wreath card:


The ornaments are cut from felt and layered up before stitched together.  I added little charms with each child's initials on them.  I sewed a gold ring onto the ornament to hold the charm and the eyelash yarn hanger.  I played around with a lot of different ornament hanger ideas and landed on the eyelash yarn.  It gives the ornaments kind of a Dr. Seuss look and feel!


Here is a close up of my favorites (meaning the ones with the most even circles)



I hope everyone had a very Happy Holiday and I know we are looking forward to crafting in a brand new year!
