Mami Doodles Home Decor - Challenge #40

Long time, no post - I forgot to post my winner from the blog hop on Halloween, but I know that Elisa reached out to the winner she drew while I was in Europe.

** Congrats to Sammibug **

On to the new challenge. This challenge was to do some sort of altered art or home decor project with a Mami Doodles image. I decided that an ornament would be an appropriate home decor item for this time of year. Here's what I did:
People I have shown this to, keep asking how I did it, so here are some very brief instructions: I took a transparency, printed it on a laser printer, I cut out the 4 inch circle with a tab (to keep it upright) at the top, and colored it in with my Copic markers and glitter pens. When I was done coloring I rolled it up and carefully put it inside the glass ornament and arranged it with a pair of needlenose pliers (tweezers would work too, if you aren't too lazy to look for yours! :D) before putting snow white flower soft and snow tinsel glitter in the ornament. I put the cap back on, and voila! Quick and easy! 
And to think, I used to be so afraid of clear glass ornaments! Enjoy and make sure you play along and check out what others have created over at Mami Doodles.
