Instructions for making the card featuring the Ornament Keepsakes Stamp Set:
- Cut an 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ piece of Baja Breeze Card Stock and fold it in the middle to create the card base,
- Cut a 4″ x 5-1/4″ piece of the ornament design from the Snow Festival Designer Series Paper and round the edges with the 3/16″ Corner Punch,
- Cut a 1-1/2″ x 11″ piece of Cherry Cobbler Card Stock and score it at every 1/4″,
- OPTIONAL: Using a border punch of your choice, punch along one of the 8-1/2″ side,
- Accordion fold the card stock and adhere the ends together,
- Punch a 1-1/4″ circle from Cherry Cobbler Card Stock with the 1-1/4″ Circle Punch,
- With the accordian folded card stock standing up, use your fingers to push down the card stock,
- Holding the card stock down and using hot glue, attach the 1-1/4″ circle on top and let dry,
- Cover an ornament stamp (see picture of card) with Gumball Green Classic Ink and stamp onto a piece of Whisper White Card Stock,
- Cut out the ornament with the appropriate Holiday Ornaments Framelits,
- Cover the ornament with VersaMark and apply Heat and Stick Powder,
- Heat set the powder, add Dazzling Diamonds, and heat set again,

- Adhere the mat to the ornament (I covered the mat with Dazzling Diamonds),
- Adhere the rosette to the DSP (I used hot glue),
- Adhere the ornament on top of the rosette (I used hot glue),
- Cover the “Merry Christmas” sentiment in Cherry Cobbler Classic Ink (from the Greetings of the Season set) and stamp onto Whisper White Card Stock,
- OPTIONAL: Decorate the sentiment,
- Adhere the sentiment to the bottom of the DSP, and
- Adhere the decorated DSP to the Baja Breeze card base.
