Groovy Christmas Ornament

I was looking for something to do with my extra scrapbooking paper.  Here is an easy ornament using scraps from my scrap pile two brads and some ribbon.

Step 1:  Cut (6) 11x1" strips of scrapbooking paper.  Double sided paper looks best.  Cut (1) 6x1" piece of coordinating paper or cardstock.



Step 2:  Cut 2 of the strips to 9" and  2 strips 7".

Step 3:  Line up the strips with the longest on the outside to the shortest 6" piece of cardstock in the middle.  Line up the ends of each strip.



Step 4:  Punch a hole and add a brad to fasten the bottom of the ornament.



Step 5:  Gather the other ends together.  Punch a hole and add a brad to fasten.

Step 6:  On the same end, punch a larger hole below the brad and string the ribbon.

Step 7:  Add to your tree or to spruce up a chandelier or doorframe.
