Day 8 of the 12 Days of Holiday Projects & Denami Razzle Dazzle Blog Hop


Welcome Day 8 of the 12 Days of Holiday Inspiration AND today I'm also participating in the Denami Razzle Dazzle Blog Hop (which starts at 9AM EST). I'm so excited to be able to participate again this month. 

I love Denami Stamps and I thought this little Denami Stamps Peek-a-boo Penguin in this circular sentiment was just too cute. Since I used two stamps, you can even use other images for the center. I colored the Penguin with Copic Markers and punched it out with a circle punch. I added Glossy Accents to the trim on the Penguin's hat and covered it with White Distress Glitter. Then I put it on a circle made from silver glitter paper. I've had this awesome ornament die for years, so I punched it using a teal color glitter paper and made the top of the ornament from the silver glitter paper. I put it on Real Red card stock from Stampin' Up. I hope it's enough Razzle Dazzle!!

This year I have a theme to my projects - it's called use what you have and keep it simple. For those of you who don't know me, I've been busy building a house this year. The process started last February and construction started in early June. I sold my old house and moved in with my parents last May. So, I have not been nearly as crafty as I like to be this year, I just haven't had the time or the space. 

I haven't purchased any new holiday stamps, just a couple of new 6x6 papers pads, Distress Glitters and some clearance embellishments when I was in London on vacation. So, if you are overloaded with supplies, I challenge you to start using up your stash instead of always buying the latest and greatest. I'm going to show you some quick and easy projects over the next 12 days that you can make using things you already own
