Okay the 3-D Challenge this week, (3d3), from Paper Craft Planet, was to make an altered item out of a Ribbon Spool.  I really wanted to make a pin cushion, but I tried for about an hour & gave up, because it look like a dogs breakfast & went surfing to see if anybody had any ideas … I love the internet.  I found this person, KMThornton, who made an altered Picture Frame Ornament with a Ribbon Spool.  Then I made my version inside of like 10 minutes.  Still have to put a picture in, but later … 

I just poked a whole with a paper piercer & pushed the ribbon through, tying it with a Rhinestone Brad:

Glossy Glued the Rhinestones & Coloured the Edging with Ruby Red Marker.  Threw on some Nestabilties:

Here’s the second scalloped Nestie I used for the back.

That’s all.  Faster to do than to take pics of.  LOL

Used:  Close To Cocoa CS, Ruby Red CS, Holiday Treasure DSP, American Crafts Premium Ribbon Shimmery XMAS Red 5/8″, Ruby Red Marker, Rhinestone Brad, Rhinestones, Glossy Glue, Scalloped & Regular Circle Nesties, oh yes & a ribbon spool.
