MUSICAL ORNAMENT CARD
Sparkly Ornament
This pair of cards are 2-of-a-kind, yet different. One base is green, the other red, and the frames are opposites too.
Card size is 4-1/4" x 5-1/2". I love red, white and green for Christmas. For a more modern twist, I decided to use a green that is not the true Christmas green, and a red that is more of a burgundy-raspberry. I just happened to have the right ribbon to accent the Music Ornaments.
Details
White frame is 3.75"w x 5"hThe ornament shape is cut from Winter Wonderland at 1.82w x 1.96h.
"Joy" is 1.86w x 1.55h. All cuts were sized on the Gypsy.
I created the music in PhotoShop and sized it down. It is the actual music from the Christmas carol, Angels We Have Heard on High.
To create the sparkly window, I used a special technique.

Inside
Green Card
Inside, I repeated the ornament shape for the Bible verse, then I heat embossed the verse for shine and dimension.
For the card verse, I cut a shape from Elegant Edges, then printed my prepared Word verse onto the shape.
Red Card
For the red card, I kept the verse panel simple with a rectangular shape and embossed frame.
I used the same 1/4" embossing for the front panel of each card.
The photos at right and below show the embossed borders on the white panels.
I am quite happy with the way these cards turned out.
I hope the recipients enjoy them!
