Hello friends! Deepti here and welcome to my Spotlight feature. For this Spotlight post I had a light bulb moment ;) I saw this Coordinating Balloon die and decided to use it as an ornament. I am kind of happy with the end results. I made a couple of CAS Christmas cards. Let me show you...
Step 1 - I picked out three colors of card stock two for the front panels and one for the ornament. I then die cut the balloon coordinating die multiple times from red card stock.
Step 2 - I then heat embossed the mandala stamps along the edge of each cut out piece. I chose a mandala you can get creative and use anything that will add more interest or even work with patterned papers.
Step 3 - Then I die cut the sentiment Noel from white card stock and drew some ornament details using a white gel pen.
Finally I adhered it all together and added some wink of stella to add some shimmer on the ornaments :)
Here is a close up into my cards...
