12 Days of Christmas Crafts // #5 DIY Framed Glitter Reindeer and Chalk Board Sign


 
 
I whipped up these two beauties pretty fast last night! I had purchased adhesive glitter paper not knowing what I would use it for. Then, I remembered {this} little fun DIY pin and decided to tackle it!
 
While staying at my parents house to baby sit the dogs, I found some old unused frames that I could use {sorry Mom, I'll get you some more if you want :) }. You could also find some at Goodwill or a second hand store and spray paint them gold.
 
First, the sparkly reindeer...You will need sparkle adhesive paper {I found mine at JoAnn's in the scrapbook section}. Or you could use regular sparkle paper and just glue it. Print off a shape of a reindeer head like {this one}.
 
Turn the glitter paper over and trace around the reindeer head with a pencil or pen...

 
Cut around the shape...

 
Adhere to a white piece of paper...

 
Stick it in a gold frame and TA-DAH!!

 
To make the look of the chalk board art, I used black construction paper and a white crayon...
 
 
I used a larger wooden frame for the chalk board look...
 
 
Not too shabby, huh? If I can do it, so can you!
 
xoxo,
