ODBD Stamps Used: Peaceful deer, Christmas Pattern Ornaments

ODBD Dies Used: Circle Ornaments, Doily, Double Stitched Circles, Lovely Leaves

To make this ornament, I first colored the Peaceful Deer ornament and cut it out with the Double stitched Circles die. I created a frame with the Double Stitched Circles die and Circle Ornaments die with a blue layer and a glittered white card stock. Behind this frame is acetate cut in a circle layered on dimensional adhesive foam tape (sealed without holes) over top of the deer image. Beads are on the inside to make it a shaker. I then layered the image over a silver cardstock cut with the Double Stitched Circle dies and the Doily (cut out of navy).

The back of the ornament was created using this 3d Circle Christmas Ornament tutorial on SC that I wrote up. I only made half of the ornament and adhered it to the framed and layered deer image.
