Repurposed Frame and SU

This frame I bought cheap and took the ugly pic out of it.  Added some chicken wire and then some photos of my "beautiful" Grand Children!  Attached with clothes pins I added some embellishment that were made and laying on my craft table.  The Huge Flower is from a gift that Stampin' Up gave me while in Disney  I love how it turned out.
Just so you know how big that flower is... the photos are 8x10

Holiday Ornament

I am doing a class on Holiday Ornaments.  Most of them I got from the front cover of the Holiday Catalog and also on page 3, but while on Pintrest I found something similar to this below,  I had to play around and see what I could come up with.  Here are two very similar.


This one below is the one I like the best
This one will be one of the ones I share at my class
Each strip that makes the loops are 1/2 wide and 6 inches long

Which one do you like the best?
