Making Ornaments & SHRINKY DINKS!

It is that time again. The 3rd Annual Buffyfest Ornament Swap.

Last year was my first year participating. I made some fun ornaments and received some cool ones too (except for that one girl. You know who you are, chicky. You got all our ornaments and then never mailed yours out. Boooooo!) I received a cool mini comic book, Buffy the Vampire Slaying Penguin, a creepy clay gentleman and stake, a Dollhouse ornament and also Mr. Gordo.

What to do this year? What to do, what to do. I didn't want to be a one-trick pony; stamps again? Naaah.

I was surfing the web and for no apparent reason whatsover, I was looking at Shrinky Dinks. I love the idea of these! I went ahead and ordered the sheets that can be used with ink jet printers. Squeeee!

I've never made a Shrinky Dink before, can you believe it?? It really was so cool watching them shrink in the oven.

Here's a sneak peak of the ornaments!










That's all you get for now.

I haven't made Shrinky Dinks since I was a kid in Girl Scouts. :)
