I have been creating collage panels with my many gel prints lately, most for Christmas cards. The striped and patchworked collages looked so pretty I decided to try the process on Grafix chipboard.

I collaged on both sides and love the way they turned out. I made a video of the process then made more chipboard decorations in different colours.
I used a serious chipboard cutting die to cut the ornaments. It is from Sizzix and I was pleased to see how clean the cuts were. If you have a digital cutting machine you would be able to cut the chipboard into any number of shapes.

After cutting out the shapes I used a gold gel pen to add stitching lines and gold paint to coat the edges. A crop-a-dile made quick work of punching holes so I could add ribbon to the shapes.

Awesome ornaments, thanks for the video!!
How fun these are! They look amazing too especially with the faux stitching. That was a nice touch. A great way to us background I probably would not use.
These loo beautiful and the different colour gelli plate strips work well Heather, and love the added stitching and lines using the gold pen which finishes them so prettily. x
