Here is a sample of one of the ornaments that I have been working on...they are so much fun
Updated with directions:
This is just a sheet of acetate rolled up and stuck inside. I got the colors so bright by stamping the image with staz on on the front, flipping it over coloring the colors with sharpies...then heat set it. Then I take my aquapainter with my white craft ink and color the entire back side of the image, and the sprinkle on white embossing powder...and heat set it. That is all there is too it.

I saw one similar to this on Carol Duval's show this week....did you use clear transparency to stamp the snowman on? The ornament is really cute and would make a wonderful gift!

Okay, you rock! How did you get your colors so bright? My daughter and I tried these but our colors didn't show up as well as yours did. Did you actually heat up your embossing powder?? I was afraid I would melt my window sheet. What's your secret? Thanks for sharing , Jennifer
