5. Cut a Whisper White smooth card stock layer 2"x 4"

6. Dust the white card stock with an 

    Embossing Buddy #103083 to prevent extra unwanted 

    flecks of embossing powder from sticking to your paper.

7. Using a VERSAMARK clear ink pad stamp the images

    Apply to panels cut in #4 & #3.

12.Using method in #6-#8, stamp image on a piece of Pink Pirouette 

    card stock instead of white and punch out with the ORNAMENT PUNCH.

    underlap your embossed image.

14. Cut a fine strip of Silver Glimmer paper 3/8" by 4" to place under the

    top of the ornament. Use dimensionals to pop up the ornament punch.
