**I receive products from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® and Spellbinders® Paper Arts for use in my projects. The opinions are completely my own based on my experience and doing so I can share what I personally love to use.**

Heartfelt Thank You Ornament Die Cuts

First, I nested the large and small circles together, secure with washi tape, and ran them through my die-cutting machine. This created my ring. Repeat with the green patterned paper to make a total of two rings. I cut one to intertwine and layer into one another. Pick out a die cut from the Gratitude Ephemera Pack and secure all with Adhesive Dots Medium.

Making the Flowers Come to Life

For the flowers, I die-cut the Sweet Cottage Flowers (medium and small blossoms) with the Origami Papers. The smaller flower had three layers and the larger had four layers. Thread a brad into each flower to secure. Mist with water and manipulate the petals for a realistic look. Then tap in onto the edges of the petals.

Cut off the liners from two Creative Photo Corner in Gold. They will accent the smaller flower (think leaves).

Embellishing the Rings

Place the corners on the lower-left area of the rings, using the flower as a guide. Then add an Adhesive Dot Medium on the back of the flower and adhere in between the corners.

Adhere the large flower on top of the die cut with an Adhesive Dot Medium.

Decorating the Ornament

Apply Adhesive Dots Medium randomly around the back of the rings. Then remove the top liners and adhere to the front of the plastic ornament. The ornament is a flat-round shape so it's easy to adhere.

Place 3D Foam Circles on the back of the Thank You sentiment die cut and center it on the front of the ornament.

Using Sparkling Bubble Rhinestones in Light Yellow and sequins with Adhesive Dots Micro, randomly place around the rings. Inside the ornament, add the lace trim as a filler. But you can add little trinkets, candy, or glitter instead. Thread ribbon to display!
