So, how would you like to learn how to turn this plain little tin into a Christmas Ornament? I found these little tins at Michaels' in the bridal favor section. They are quick and easy to transform into ornaments.
Pick an image to use. Here I chose the Martini Girl Rubber Romance ATC sized Diva. I stamped her on white cardstock. I found a punch that fit the dimensions of my tin and punched her out.
Use a small hole punch to put a hole through the tin, it punches very easily. Tie a bit of cord or twine through to make the hanger for your ornament.
Use red line adhesive to adhere ribbon to the edge of the lid. Add some ribbon to the hanger as well.
Color and decorate the image. I used Copic markers. I added a bit of sparkle to her eye shadow, lipstick and earrings with Copic Spica pens. I covered the martini glass with a glossy glaze pen and added a rhinestone "cherry".
Place some foam dimensionals into the tin. This will raise the image a bit so it doesn't look lost in the tin.
Fun ornament!
