Twinkling Christmas Ornament

Instructions:

Cut a piece of the Deluxe Flower Shaping cardstock to 5 x 7". Cut another piece to 5 x 7 1/2", score and fold at 7". Attach the two pieces together to create a card base. Cut another two 5 x 7" size panels and set aside. From sheet 4A of the Holiday Ornament paper collection, cut a piece of the paper to 4 7/8 x 6 5/8" size. Using from the HCD1-7465 Large Holiday Ornament Die, diecut the ornament outline from the 2 white panels, green panel and card base, making sure to align the placement so these can be layered on top of each other perfectly. When using the outline die, you’ll want to diecut the opening a little larger to allow the ornament to twist around easily in the opening. To do this, diecut your outline once, then the second time place die a little to left or right and diecut, then diecut one more time at the top and this creates a larger opening. Stamp the string of ornaments from HCPC-31030 Sparkling Holiday Ornaments Cling Stamp Set in Leaf Green onto one of the white panels as shown. Stamp the ‘Merry Christmas’ sentiment from HCPC-31028 Christmas Holly Accents Cling Stamp Set in Carnation Red onto panel as shown and also stamp one on a separate piece and diecut. Lightly ink the left and right edges with Encore Gold ink and sprinkle with Roman Gold embossing power and heat set. Trim the other coordinating size white panel into two sections at the lengthwise. Make the cut at the top and bottom point of ornament outline and trim off 1/8" section gap between the cut. Now attach these panels underneath the main panel. 

Using from the HCPC-31029 Large Holiday Ornament Cling Stamp Set, stamp the ornament image in Encore Gold ink onto the Deluxe Flower Shaping paper and sprinkle with Roman Gold Embossing powder and heat set. Repeat this step for the star image. Diecut these with the coordinating dies. Also diecut the outline from sheet 9A of the paper collection. Cut two small pieces of the stamen wire, attach at the top and bottom point of ornament and then layer onto one of the ornament cutout pieces from card base. 

Use the Zig markers along with the blender to color the ornament, star and ornaments on the card panel. You’ll need the Carmine Red, Bright Yellow, Yellow, May Green, and Light Green markers to color the images. Add a light touch of the yellow and red to the Merry Christmas sentiment. Now layer the ornament together using hot glue and glue. Add the star on top. Sponge the edges of card panel and ornament opening with Sunflower. Then follow with the Leaf Green ink. Use the yellow dauber to sponge some of the Dries Clear glue around the top left corner and bottom right, then sprinkle with the Frosting powder. Do the same around the ornament opening, but sprinkle with the Mustard glitter. Hold the ornament in place of the opening, and attach the panel onto the green panel, and then attach that onto the card base. Diecut a border from the HCD2-7427 Filigree Accents Die, sponge the edges with Encore Gold, sprinkle with Roman Gold and heat set. Attach onto card as shown and trim off excess. Attach sentiment.
