Vintage ornament

This is a picture of my parents back in the 50's, my dad was in the Air Force (which later I understand was the Air division of the Army) .
My dad passed in 2009 and my mom passed in 1972 so any picture I have is precious. Each year since 2009 I make an ornament for my siblings and myself.

I took some wood cutouts that had a butterfly in the middle and using my Circle Scissors tool cut out scrapbook paper and the image, glued it to the front and added a vintage colored heart charm (from Michael's) . Can't wait to give them to my 4 siings this Christmas.

Annual Ornament of my Parents

Since the passing of my father in 2009, each Christmas I make a special ornament for me and my siblings. (My mom passed 40 years ago) So these ornaments are special to me and to my sisters and brother.

This year I re-purpose the packaging from the Sizzix Die and die cut the large Sizzix Snowflake. For mine I added an additional clear snowflake. Large SU Flat back pearls were added to the outer stems of the snowflake, while smaller pearls were added to the inside layer.

Their wedding picture is corner rounded and raised on double thickness of foam squares. Each layer of snowflakes are also attached to each other by a double layer of foam squares.

It was difficult to take a picture of clear plastic, this seemed to be the best... hope you can see the layers,
