This card uses the Mini Multi Step Ornament & Stars, Multi Step Gift and Multi Step Build a Garland. I used the sketch as inspiration, taking a few creative liberties. I wanted to add some shine to the ornament as they remind me of the ones that covered my grandmothers tree, so I stamped Step #1 in Versamark (after following the steps below) and clear embossed. Pierced a small hole and wrapped some Green Wire Works as my ornament hook. The sentiment is embossed in Gold. The beautiful Gold shimmer paper is White Gold Metallic from Paper Temptress, the base is Haute Red Brawny which matches the Basic Grey Wassail paper perfectly!
