Here’s an ornament that is eye catching and easy to create. It is made from metal which seems to twinkle when the lights on the tree reflect the shine.
I die cut the ornament from the Doily Medallion die
and M-D Hobby and Craft Metal Sheets. I then embossed it with the Starburst Textured Impressions Folder.
I also cut 2 scalloped circles from an earlier die (Cake Box)- a white one from matboard and an aqua one from paper and mounted them behind the silver die cut. The metal doily was bumped up with Foam Squares from ThermoWeb. I glued a loop of ribbon around the back of the ornament and added a rhinestone pin to the top of the ornament. I love the bling!
