Instructions:
- For the ornament: Cut 3½"x3½" each from the Shimmer cardstock and the 6" wide double-stick tape. Place the tape on the back of the cardstock, but don’t remove the liner yet. Die cut the 3¼" circle from the cardstock. Remove the tape liner and place the cardstock centered on one chipboard ornament. Re-punch the hanger hole through the cardstock.
- Remove the bow, candle, fir branch, two pine cones, and poinsettia chipboard from the backing. Press the bow and poinsettia onto the Chinese Red ink pad until the front of each is completely covered with ink. Repeat to color the candle with Midnight, the fir branch with Grasshopper, and the pine cones with Friar Brown. Let them dry.
- Rub glue over the front of the inked chipboard pieces, then cover them with Diamond Dust, pressing it into the glue. Let the glue dry, then tap off the excess glitter. Glue the chipboard pieces to the ornament as shown, overlapping the cones and flower.
- Place diamond sparkles on the bow, flower, and candle flame as shown. Tie ¼" sheer ribbon onto the ornament, knot it into a loop, and trim the ends.
