“Growing up, I always heard stories from my Austrian grandmother about the Christkindlmarkt, or Christmas Market. Stalls at the market are filled with baked goods and homemade Christmas décor, especially glass Christmas tree ornaments.

💗 For the release of the new Frank Garcia Christmas Market collection, I wanted to create my own little Christmas ornament. I decorated my MDF shape using one of the pretty green and white patterned papers from the collection.

💗 I added Finnabair Jewel Paste to the clasp of the ornament for a textured, golden touch. The Prima Iron Orchid Large Flourish mould was painted with a Impasto Paint and highlighted with Opal Magic Wax. It became the perfect foundation for the flower cluster!

💗 I tucked in some of the pretty snowflake lace from the collection, as well as some ephemera. For a sparkly touch, I applied the Gold Foil Flakes to some smooth cardstock with double-sided adhesive on it. Then die cut out some leaves from the foiled cardstock, tucking them into the flower cluster.

💗 I topped it off with a Chipboard Sticker sentiment, dabs of Finnabair Snowflake Paste, and a pretty pink bow! I hope this inspires you to make your own magical Christmas décor!” -Adrienne

“Today I am sharing a Christmas tree topper in a bow shape that I created from Prima’s new collection “Christmas Market”.

I used “Cookies for Sant” and “Christmas Cheer” paper from this collection to create the bow, I applied white crackle texture paste randomly on it.

I then took Santa ephemera for the center of the bow and added flowers around it. I also added some fussy cut leaves and flowers in between the layers.
Then I used white lace trims to balance the composition. To adorn the project, I added art stones, sequins, and pearls.
Happy Crafting!”
