Elegant Easy Christmas Ornaments

At Scrapbook Blessings Club today I want to share with you a super easy but elegant Christmas ornament!

Yes, that's right, it's super simple and easy with little cost using your Cricut or any cutting machine, vinyl, and pre-purchased glass ornaments!!!! I made 2 of each style for a total of 6 ornaments, scraps of vinyl which took me approximately 30 minutes for all 6 and cost is less than $4.00 for all 6 ornaments!!!!

Supplies:

• black vinyl scraps
• this is the image I had used creating with Make the Cut and using Create with TLC image 
  
• glass 3.5 inch ornaments

TIP: when cutting be sure to use the "kiss" setting for cutting as not to tear the vinyl.

Thanks for stopping by today and hope you want to try making these also!
