Instructions:

1. Use cookie cutters to create the two large shapes out of metallic gold cardstock and punch a tag motif out of gold cardstock. In all three shapes, punch a hole and insert an eyelet. Set each piece aside for the moment.
2. Adhere a piece of gold metallic paper diagonal from the top right of the card to the bottom left.
3. Cut one side of the gold corrugated cardstock at a diagonal angle. The grain of the corrugated cardstock should be vertical. Adhere a 4 cm wide strip to the diagonal edge - overlapping 1 centimeter. Adhere the 2 papers now to the bottom of the card.
4. Cut a small piece of gold cardstock 3 x 4 centimeters or depending on the width and height of your peel-off sticker. Punch a hole in the top left of the cardstock rectangle and add an eyelet. Add your peel-off sticker to the rectangle. Make a bow of the the gold ribbon and adhere it to the rectangle using a 3-D pad. Set aside for the moment.
5. Add the peel-off sticker stars to the top middle portion of the card.
6. Decorate the punched out tag with a piece of ribbon and the two metallic trees. The trees get adhered with 3-D foam tape.
7. Open the card and lay it flat on the piece of foam. Use the needle and punch a hole on each side of the card front where the cording will go through. Insert the cording through the 3 hanging figures created in in step one and then insert the ends of the cording through these holes. Secure the ends on the inside of the card cover with tape. To hide the cording, cut a piece of gold cardstock the same size as the card and adhere it to the front inside cover. Arrange the figures and if necessary, adhere a piece of 3-D foam tape underneath them to hold them in place on the card.
8. Use 3-D foam tape and stick the small rectangle with the message to the card.
