Cricut Circle Ornaments

I made a few ornaments last week, and wanted to share them here.  They are pretty simple, but I love the end result.

To create the ornaments I started with 4 inch acrylic circles- that I had made for me.  Using my gypsy I made a snowflake background using the Cricut Cart Doodle Charms.  I cut the snowflakes out of silver glittery vinyl and applied to one side of the Acrylic.

Sorry about the pink tint to the photos. I really need some better lighting in my craft room

I applied to the acrylic using transfer tape.

I then turned the ornament over and applied the circle logo cut from pink vinyl (CART- Cricut EVERYDAY) and my name (GYPSY FONT)

I added a piece of glittery ribbon and a smaller ribbon to use to hang it from the tree and I was all done! SIMPLE, yet I am very happy with the end results.

  6. These look great, Missie! I did something similar for an ornament exchange this year, but I used glass ornaments from Hobby Lobby. They average about $1.20 each when on sale at 50% off. They have the coolest 'flat' ornaments. I chose the square shape this year, but they also had a circle shape - would be a great substitute if you can't find the acrylic circles. Keep on posting, Missie! Loved seeing your room again, too.
