Christmas Shadow Box Ornaments

 It's Christmas in July, right?

Check out these cute multilayered ornaments.  They're quick to make! 



 

 Hang this decoration up wherever it fits!  Go ahead and personalize it.  There is lots of room for your greeting on the back of this multilayered ornament. You can assemble it flat, or use foam adhesive to create dimension.

You can personalize these by writing around the outside frame, too!   

INSTRUCTIONS: (or see the video short below or on YouTube for general instructions)

  1. Cut all the elements in the colours of your choice.
  2. Lay out each of the layers with their elements (such as the penguin's pieces - beak, eyes, hat, fish, bow and black outline - with the white penguin body layer).  Adhere those pieces as shown in the thumbnail before assembling the ornament.
  3. Test assemble the ornament, so you know which layer goes where.
  4. Use glue, glue dots or tape runner to build the ornament by carefully adding the layers. OR if you want a dimensional "shadow box" ornament, cut small pieces of foam adhesive to add between the layers.  I like to add adhesive at 3, 6, 9 and 12 o'clock, but you can add more!

  5. Add string or a ribbon through the loop at the top!
  6. Give to someone special!
