Of course you can use any designer paper but I've fallen in love the with Whimsy & Wonder set of papers--with the silver foil inlays it just shines like crazy.

I'll give you the step by step directions below followed by the list of supplies that are used in addition to Eden's Garden.

Remember if you place an order online & use my monthly Host Code (TMTS2VZV) you'll receive $5 in Stampin'Up! product (I choose) for each  $50 in product that you purchase.

Directions:

1. Cut Thick Basic White cardstock 4 1/4 X 11, score at 2 1/2 & 6 3/4 (2 1/2 X 4 1/4 = card base).

2. Cut Thick Basic White cardstock 2 1/2 X 4 1/4; adhere to bottom of base to add stability.

3. Cut Shaded Spruce cardstock 4 X 4; Cut Wonder & Whimsy (ornament design) DSP 3 7/8 X 3 7/8. Adhere this to the Spruce  with liquid glue. Adhere this unit with liquid glue to the first 4 1/4 X 4 1/4 square (furthest from the 2 1/2 X 4 1/4 section.)

    *Using the open oval ornament dies ( Detailed Baubles) die cut the ornament in this section (save ornament for making a tag).

    *Cut Vellum cardstock 4 X 4; glue dot this to the backside of this square (covers the ornament opening).

4. Die cut the detailed ornament with snowflake from Basic White cardstock; using small dots of liquid glue on the back side--adhere to front of the vellum so it is centered in the ornament opening.

    *Adhere large rhinestone to the center of the snowflake, adhere small rhinestones to the longest spokes (see photo).

5. Cut approximately 7" white glittered organdy ribbon, tie in bow - adhere with glue dot to top of ornament.

6. Cut Shaded Spruce 5/8 X 4; cut Soft Seafoam 1/2 X 3 7/8; adhere these together with liquid glue. Adhere four large Brushed metallic dots evenly spaced on the Seafoam layer. Adhere this unit to the 2 1/2 X 4 1/4" section with dimensionals...position approximately 1/8" from front edge. This acts as the "stop."

7. Fold into a triangle with the front positioned behind the "stop."

8. Insert a battery operated tea light inside the tent.
