November My Monthly Hero Countdown: Idea #2 + Giveaway!

We are back with another look at the November My Monthly Hero release! The kit will be available on Monday, November 6th at 1pm Eastern/10 am Pacific. We’ll be sharing ideas for using the main kit and optional add-on products all weekend long, so stay tuned for more project inspiration! Now let’s join Ilina, who is sharing another look at this fabulous kit. 

Hi stampers, I hope you are enjoying the sneak peeks from the November My Monthly Hero kit. When I saw the kit, my first thought was ornaments. I know, little off tangent. But I love how they turned out. I hope you are able to see and imagine the versatility of this kit! For my project today I used the tag dies from the kit (snowflake, Christmas tree and star) and die cut two pieces each of wool felt that I purchased on Etsy and have been hoarding for years. 

After I had my pieces I sewed assorted sequins from the Champagne and Frost mixes and pearl beads to decorate my ornaments.For the tree I used the actual matching stamp (stamped image) as a guide to sew the sequins. For the Snowflake and Star I did my own design. 

Once I was done decorating the felt pieces I held both matching pieces of felt back to back, and sewed half way, stuffed with some filling, then finished sewing them up to close them. To finish it off I added some silver string to be able to hang them on the tree.
