Instructions: Stamp and die cut 2 of the cardinal images using Chocolate ink on white cardstock. I added colour to the cardinals using Chamelion pens, 2 different reds, making one a little less vibrant for the female cardinal. From one of the die cuts I fussy cut out JUST the cardinals. On the other I added colour using my Chameleon Pens. Add 3D Crystal Lacquer to all of the holly berries. Let dry.
With the oval dies if you were to number them from smallest to largest, the smallest being #1. I used the #4 die from the large ovals to cut one in white cardstock and one sentiment from the patterned sentiment sheet of patterned paper. Then using the #4 die from the small ovals I cut one from the dark green patterned paper.
I adhered the white oval to the front of the ornament and the sentimant to the back using my Extreme Double Sided Tape, and popped up the green oval using 3D foam squares.
Adhere the cut out cardinals on top of the full image using mini 3D foam squares. I adhered the layered image onto the ornament again using mini 3D foam squares.
I created a layered twine bow and added it to the top of the ornament using hot glue, then added the single button.
