Helmar Holiday Hop - DIY Noel Ornament!

Welcome to the Helmar Holiday Blog Hop! We are so excited to be apart of this awesome hop and share our creation with you today! You might be stopping by from Becky's blog - but if you're not, and want to start at the beginning, make sure you head back to the Helmar blog!

Alright, are you ready to get started? We've got a fun ornament that you can make with the stuff you have right at home, today! We'll just need to grab a few supplies to get started!

DIY Noel Ornament:

1 thick piece of chipboard (if you don't have thick chipboard, trying gluing two or three pieces of thinner chipboard or cardstock together)
Helmar Gemstone Glue
Scissors
Xacto knife
tiny hole punch
Glitter (if you don't want to make it with glitter, you could also use a piece of your favorite patterned scrapbook paper!)

STEP ONE: Print out the free Noel pdf template we have available at the bottom of this post.
STEP TWO: Cut it out, then trace it on your chipboard.
STEP THREE: Cut it out of the chipboard. You'll have to use your Xacto knife for the small parts. Those Tim Holtz scissors are a must have!! Also, if you are hanging this, punch two small holes in the N and L for your ribbon.
STEP FOUR: Get your glitter and glue ready.......
STEP FIVE: Start gluing! Spread it around....
... and pour the glitter on!
STEP SIX: Don't forget to do the same on the backside.
STEP SEVEN: Once it has dried, get your ribbon or twine and tie it up all pretty and hang it on your tree!
