The hardest part was to center the ornament punch identically for each of the four silver ornaments. The Joy diecut didn't stand out as much as I wanted at first, so I cut another one using black paper and offset it slightly to give it added contrast over the ornaments. The Joy cutout was raised slightly using rolled up glue dots underneath.

Oh this is lovely. My favourite die cut ornament and I think the embossing is just fab. Thanks so much for playing along with 52CCT this week, Deborah. DT.
Great idea to use the ornaments! I like how you layered the Joy to make the sentiment pop. Thank you for stamping along with the Create with Connie and Mary challenge
I love how you have combined these two challenges, and especially love your choice of ornaments for the elements in the sketch! Thank you for joining us at Create with Connie and Mary!
