Start by die cutting the ornaments on cream card stock as the picture below shows. Make sure to use removable tape to hold dies in place with cut side down on the cutting plate. Run through the
Grand Calibur die cutting machine.
Emboss cut ornaments using
Flower Delight Grand Impressabilities template. See picture below.
Ink embossed ornaments with Tim Holtz Distress Inks, Evergreen Bough, Festive Berries, and Vintage Photo. Ink embossed areas lightly using a foam applicator, this process will highlight the embossed area. You can also ink the back of the ornaments.
I used photos for the centers which I layered between the embossed front and back ornament piece. I also rubber stamped some of the centers with
JustRite Stampers rubbers stamps, Merry and Bright and Christmas Mini Sentiments Set. Glue pieces together and punch a small hole for ribbon.
The flowers were die cut with
Hexagon Petal Envelope flower dies. The pieces were layered and glued together with foam tape for extra dimension. You can see my tutorial on how to make these flowers on this link:
Hexagon Petal Envelope and Basket Ensemble.
The scrolls and leaves were die cut with
Floral Flourishes by Spellbinders.
