Christmas by the Sea Bauble by Amanda Baldwin
#couturecreationsaus
Welcome Couture Creations Fans,
or should I say,
Season's Greetings!
as we continue with our Christmas in July theme!
Amanda here with you today,
sharing my exquisite, Christmas By-the-Sea, glass bauble decoration.
Isn't this just delightful?!!
It's also super easy to make (lazy crafter alert!) that you'll make a dozen in next to no time!
You will need one (or more) of these open glass baubles -
I got mine from one of those thrifty $2 gift stores, but florists also sell them.
1. Attach natural raffia & ribbon, as shown above.
2. Using Kraft cardstock, cut the following two dies from the Merry Little Christmas Collection;
3. Glue into position as shown above
(doesn't that tree make excellent foilage? So versatile!)
4. Fill your bauble with 1/3 sand, arrange a few ornate shells on top.
For finishing touches add a couple of berries (or dried rose buds) & some smaller shells.
That completes this simple, but stunning, Christmas-By-the-Sea Ornament.
Hope you feel inspired to give this little project a go!

Happy Christmas in July!!!
