My younger daughter had an ornament exchange party to go to, so I wanted to come up with a fun ornament for her to exchange. Most of the girls that were invited are on her basketball team, so as I was shopping at one of my "happy places" Michael's, I found a good-sized basketball ornament for $3 in the value section. And with a 50% coupon in hand, it made my good find GREAT!!
Here's how I personalized it:
Their team name & years for this basketball season
Blue glitter ribbon used as the hanger!

Supplies:
- Cricut Birthday Bash cartridge for lettering (welded on my Gypsy)
- Blue Oracel indoor vinyl (color known as Gentian on Expressions Vinyl website where I purchased it)
- Blue glitter ribbon from Michael's current holiday ribbon selection
This was a super easy project. And my daughter returned from the party with rave reviews for the ornament. Apparently it was "stolen" often in their white elephant game. That's music to a crafter's ear!
More projects to post, so see you soon! Thanks for looking!!
