Suzanne's designs can make a quick card right off the mat, or when creativity strikes you can use any of the elements to create without limits.
The card layers can also be used as stencils.
Purposefully not adding a sentiment- there are many to choose from in Suzanne's Design shop, so I can use this card for any occasion .

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!

 

 If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me on my website.

You can find these designs at Silhouette HERE! Also find them at Shop.LoriWhitlock HERE where you can also purchase them as bundles!

Happy creating! Suzanne
