I know, Christmas has come and gone, but I still have a few items to share with you before I pack away the decorations. Here, I created a set of angel ornaments using the Build A Bear die cuts and Beautiful Butterflies die. I made 3 girl and 1 boy angels- one for each of my kids. I used brown and white felt. The white felt is a stiffened felt which was not available in brown. However, in retrospect, I would find someway of stiffening the felt to improve the overall look of the project. The halo is a gold pipe cleaner which I sewed onto the head using gold thread. After I made my angel using the clothing from Beary Essentials and wings from the Beautiful Butterflies die, I glued it a wooden clothes pin for hanging on the tree. I did their names with glitter glue that Tessa got for her birthday. The kids really liked the way they turned out. Next year, I might have to make some for all the nieces and nephews as well, at least the nieces and nephews under 18. 
Next, I used the same approach and the Beary Merry die to create a Santa Clause ornament. Again, I glued the finished bear onto a wooden clothespin.
I promise, this is my last Christmas item for a long time. I'll put away my Christmas items until it is time to prepare for Christmas 2010.
God Bless and Happy Stampin!
