I stamped the ornament and Santa's sleigh on ultra smooth glitter paper using VersaFine Onyx Black and heat embossed with clear ep. The image was colored with Spectrum Noir markers, attached to a plain sheet of thin cs for stability and die cut. I cut another ornament from heavy black cs and adhered the colored the ornament. There is a matching craft foam piece behind for dimension.
I prepared the card front and attached the ornament to the pine branch with a hanger I fashioned from a flourish die. The ornament was positioned and adhered to the card front before I adhered the pine branch - that was a little bit tricky. I added clear sequins to suggest lights on the tree.
As always, thanks for looking!

Has a frosty look from that ultra fine glitter paper and what a gorgeous ornament - great coloring job! That die cut edge is really cool, and I love the "lights" on your tree!
