So here it goes:
Shelly asked....How many do you make each season? Depends. I always make for all of my immediate family which is 13. Then there are those who have seen theirs and want one so I guess I could roughly say maybe a total of 40-50. But if it is for the ACS Relay For Life Bazaar I will make close to 200!
Paige asked...Any chance of getting a group shot of all the ornaments? Sure, as soon as I finish up on the others I am working on I'll be sure to take group picture.
Jenn asked...Where do you buy the plain ornaments? I ususally get them at Michael's and was very fortunate to be able to purchase what they had left for 10 cents a piece and I have a total of 120 in boxes right now and as soon as they are put out I will begin to buy more a little at a time.
Traci asked...Who is the snowman by? The snowman is by Inkadinkadoo. It came in a set with snowflakes, sentiments. I got it at Michaels last year, but I think if you went on their website they may have them there.
Jennifer asked...Tip on keeping the stamp from sliding. When stamping make sure you don't oversaturate the stamp. I have found through many trials of error when I first began making them that it is better to lightly stamp the image and if you decide you want it more prominent then wipe off and apply the ink a little heavier..it is just a matter of patience and error.
Sankari asked...Any chance of a Tutorial? Yes, but need to locate a video camera first LOL!!!! I don't own one personally but daughter does and maybe after she gets moved in her home she will loan it to me.
Melissa asked...Ink Type used? I have found that Stazon seems to work best, but you can try others but would have to seal it with a matte finish so it won't rub off.
Heidi asked...What do you use to color the images? It all depends on the image itself. I have used Sharpie Finepoints and regular Sharpies, Bic Markers, Colorbox Cat Eye Chalk Pads, and sometimes the Copics. I have found with Copics that they seem to streak so I rarely use them.

Thanks for all of the answers- I cannot wait to see the group shot of all of the ornaments!
I am thinking this is an awesome gift! May I ask what you use to color them in with then?
Great info, Deb! Thanks for taking the time. You are such an awesome talent! Blessings to you!
I was thinking of asking you for a tutorial, too. So glad you are planning to do one. Thanks for answering so many questions, looking forward to trying these this year.
Thanks for all of the tips. I just might have to try making some of these! They'd make cute tie-ons for presents...but, of course, I doubt very seriously that mine would turn out as beautiful as yours!
Thanks for all the tips! You are a very busy lady to make over 200 of those but they are so gorgeous!
Thanks so much for answering all the questions--those ornaments are fabulous! Maybe I'll work up the nerve to try this LOL!
Thanks for this! Some of these were questions I wanted to ask you myself!
