Tis' almost the season for yule tide, so I'll start with my contribution for my local church's 50th anniversary ornament.
If you feel the spirit, at least for inspiration's sake, show off yours!

my turn again - this time with a re-work from George P and his 12 days of Christmas - mostly reducing nodes by 90% (did I mention that I HATE NODES!) but also a little re-work on the images

Nice ornaments folks!
FWIW there are some very nice ornaments in this forum from past years. A little bit of searching will provide some of this groups most beautiful Christmas ornaments that are ready to cut. If you have our Archive DVD's these file attachments are in the Engravers Forum Folders.
I make custom Christmas ornaments every year for our family and friends. I engrave their names and Christmas 2013 (this year) in each ornament and we attach them to the person's present. After many years the collection adds up as the ornaments are used to decorate Christmas trees. By the time the kids are grown up they will already have a great start on ornaments for their first tree.
.
I wanted to share this but didn't want to make an entire new thread.
Made these for some of the people I work with. I did their names in place of the Merry Christmas.

here is a ornament what I made for a womans brestcancer survivor group.

I've done a few of these, but not as many as I would have thought.
Here's an Angel's Ornament altered to fit a 2" disc, great for adding sublimation & color to an ornament. You can also raster the disc area on the obverse for a 2 sided ornament. I use .25" BB ply for these, although .125" works too.

Great Job!

I have a student who created a star shaped tree. She made a few concentric stars then cut the path of the innermost star and connected it to the next one out. She did this to each star until she had a path connecting all the stars into one spiraling shape. star thing.jpg
