Flourishes Snow Globe Ornament

Posted by Becca Feeken on Friday, October 10th, 2008

When I saw the new releases for Flourishes I was tickled as punch.  I have a die cut globe that I’ve been dying to use and I knew the images for Sleigh Ride would fit wonderfully.  This set is adorable . . . be sure you click over to Flourishes to see this set and four other sets released this week.

The snow globe is made out of  transparency and I stamped four images of the reindeer with stazon ink.  I colored behind each copy with Adirondack and Copic markers.  On each piece of the globe I dotted the surface with a white out pen to give it white dots that will seem like snow.  The bottom pieces were embossed with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dot embossing folder, just to add some interest and texture.   Finally I added the ribbons and a tie so that the globe can be placed on a desk or hung on a tree.

 

Be sure to stop by and see what the Design Team and the Friends of Flourishes have created.  This is day three of the new release and the samples are simply amazing:

    This reminds me of the ornaments that can be made with the SAR kits - absolutely beautiful. I bet it will sparkle beatifully on the tree too.

    Becca: I love your globe. I have seen the some assembly required ads in the paper craft magazines, but never tried them. You make it very tempting! Thanks & have a lovely weekend.

  14. Jean Fitchon 11 Oct 2008 at 4:58 am 14

    WoW Becca!

    Okay sister stamper spill. Video tutorial needed! Please. Before I go insane trying to recreate the base. I’ve tried a few globe cards before but this is amazing. Even my cats are contemplating this one. Snickering probably over all the paper scraps they will get to steal!

    So much Awesome talent in one set of fingers, brain and heart is just plain unfair to the rest of us (not to mention making the angels crazy)
    - LoL! All that and beauty too.

    Thanks for sharing with the rest of us mere mortals :) - Jean

    This is totally amazing Becca! What a wonderful homemade ornament for a tree. Personally, I would buy a gold stand for it and and let it hang from that. Wow, this would be a super gift, thanks so much for sharing!

    Mrs Becca …. What more can I said, maybe it will sound different if is in spanish…. “Esta Maravilloso”.
    Thank you and we want to know what you use to make the globe.
    Take care.
    Raul

  26. Lisaon 28 Oct 2008 at 12:00 am 26

    So beautiful! I must bump that Flourish set up to the top of my list!
    Do you think this globe die cut would work with a photograph printed onto the clear transparency?
    Where would you suggest buying the die on line?

  27. debon 18 Nov 2008 at 7:39 pm 27

    Becca, I would appreciate it if you could email me when you have a tutorial on thIS, I am really interested in making this for my mother who has everything she needs for Xmas. I always make a homade ornament for her and my 2 sisters.
