Today's WT510 challenge is to feature a Christmas ornament on our cards. This is a new die that I bought a month or so ago, but it wasn't cutting well with my old cuttlebug just before it broke down. Now, with the big shot, I had no problem. I die cut the blue cs and glued it to a silver top of a yogurt container. I have a pile of them saved....don't know when I am going to use them, but it worked for today. Knotted a small piece of ribbon and added the sentiment which was part of a $1.50 stamp from Michaels.

Never in a million years would I have guessed you used a yogurt container! It looks like silk -- This is beautiful and creative!

I love the look of that yogurt top! I like that it is sort of burnished looking and not like a mirror. Your silver bit of ribbon is the perfect topper. As others have commented the blue and white colour scheme is so appropriate with your sentiment. TFS
