I decided to completely remake this card from the original card kit designed by Liz Thayer. I loved the peacock designer paper used, but my "edit" mode told me the card needed more color and a bit more design and layout balance. To give the ornament more sparkle and life, I added olive with the peacock and Wink of Stella-Clear coloring. I am particularly please with my modified die-cut to provide an area to place the vertical, embossed sentiment. (The original card is posted with the WT650 challenge.)
Take a peek below at the 12 challenges that my card fit:
1) MIM1219...Fan Club Monthly Themes: December 2019...More is More - A Star is Born--12/16/19. I re-created my first try at this card, which was using the original card design. Note: Remade card can be seen by clicking here and scrolling down Post #21: First try at card .

Your ornament is so pretty, Carlene, and I really like the dp. The gold really dresses it up.
