It is so easy and I think very cute. You start with a 3 3/4 inch square of cardstock and each layer down is 1/4 inch smaller. All you do is layer and turn, super quick to make! I am still loving the tangerine and kiwi with this SU Frosty Days DS paper, I just love the nontraditional colors. I made my ornament a gift card holder as well, by simply adding another 3 3/4 by 2 inch piece of cardstock onto the back and attached it with 1/8 inch sticky tape on three sides. I punched a half circle into the top with my 1/2 inch circle punch to make the gift card easier to get out. It is a tight fit but works!
Best of all it can be done so quick, less than 20 minutes start to finish!
