Paper crafted Decou-Page and Button Ornament

Button Ornament for Craft lighting by Laura Kelly

Button ornaments are great for kids to make.  Here is a beautiful and easy to make paper crafted ornament using Decou-Page and buttons.  The final ornament works great for decorating a tree, using for a gift tag or even for a place card.

You will need scrapbook paper scraps, chipboard or cardboard, Decou-Page, wire ,buttons (I used Candy Apple Green and Radical Red), a brush, scissors, a hole punch and ribbon.

1. Cut out a cardboard rectangle.
2. Brush a thick later of Decou-Page on it and place your scrapbook papers on it then apply another layer over the top.

The next steps are as follows:

1. Punch two holes in the top.
2. Add a wire twisted with buttons through the holes.
3. Add a ribbon with hot glue or whatever adhesive you like best.
4. Add a charm if you like.

Ta Da!  You have a beautiful ornament.
Happy Holiday Creating,

Laura
