GOOD MORNING & welcome to the 8th day of our 12 Days of Christmas! Today is an EXTRA SPECIAL project for my Hubby & my Dad! I learned how to make silhouette pictures from these 2 lovely ladies I came across on The Craft Channel! Here is the link to the exact video: http://www.mycraftchannel.com/Shows/I-Heart-Faces/?omedia_id=375
This has to be the MOST EASIEST & personal sweet gift you can give to anyone special in your lives! The ONLY thing I had a little trouble with was trying to turn my pic into a silhouette! Unfortunately, after I finally figured it out, I printed out my pics & deleted them by accident:( Lets just say that I will NOT be making anymore of these!! lol..... Giving this as a gift to my Hubby & my Dad is PERFECT enough for me!;)
For these ADORABLE tags, I used my "Build a Banner Kit"! The sentiment is from my "All Around Christmas" stamp set & "Daddy & Grandpa" is from my "You're my Best Buddy" stamp set!
SUPER DUPER easy, just use any clear jar OR an ornament, I chose a jar so my hubby can have it out year round rather than packing an ornament away & won't see it again til next year!;) Then you will need a cute Santa hat (optional) & some kind of snow inside! It kinda almost looks like a snow globe!!!;)
I just LOVE LOVE LOVE how these came out!;) For my Dad's, I just used a diffent shaped jar & I still think it looks good! If any of you have those empty prima flower jars laying around, I think that will be PERFECT for this project as well!
Here is the video showing exactly how these were made!
