Easy Paper Ornament - Ginger Snap Crafts

Handmade Ornament #12

Hi Lines Across readers! My name is Ginger, and I blog over at Ginger Snap Crafts! I’m married to an amazing husband, & we have 5 wild & crazy kiddos! I’ve been blogging for a little over 2 years, and I’m loving it so far! I love sharing easy & quick tutorials, recipes, organization ideas, featuring others, hosting a link party & more. So if you get a chance to pop over to my blog I’d be glad to have you! I am so excited to be here today sharing an easy paper ornament tutorial with all of YOU! 🙂

For this project you’ll need:

holiday scrapbook paper
circle punch, circle maker or a Silhouette
Elmer’s X-TREME glue stick
metal hook
hot glue & glue
holiday stamp
white card stock
piece of ribbon
mini hole punch

I bought this cool little gadget at Hobby Lobby with my 40% off coupon. I’m still getting the hang of it. ha! 😉 Buuut it really did make it super easy to cut out a bunch of circles. You could also use a circle punch or a Silhouette to do the same thing. 🙂 (I LOVE my Silhouette! You can check out all my Silhouette tutorials HERE.)

I cut about 10 circles out (all the same size).

Then I folded all the circles in half (pretty side of the paper inside).

Then I started gluing the circles together one side to another side & so on.

When I got to the last two circles I hot glued the hook inside before I glued the last two circles together.

Next I stamped Merry Christmas on some white card stock & punched it out with a circle punch. Then I used a mini hole punch to make a spot to attach the ribbon.

Then I tied the tag around my hook with a ribbon. That’s it! 🙂

Now it’s ready to hang on the tree! 🙂 I was thinking next time I try this I’ll probably add more circles to make the ornament a little fuller. You could also used different colors of scrapbook paper & make some fun patterns. Get creative! 🙂
