Lattice Die Tree Ornament



Here is my Christmas Ornament that I made using the Lattice Die with the Big Shot. This came out so gorgeous, the pictures really do not do it justice.
You can see how I made it below!

Cut out six Lattice shapes using Whisper White card stock and the Big Shot. You can cut out more, and I bet that would look even better. Fold each lattice shape in half like shown.


Once they are all folded in half, glue each half to the next one so you have a stack of lattice shapes, folded in half, stacked up. Then just take the two ends and glue them together.
I did use Cherry Cobbler seam binding ribbon down the center to make the hanging part, but that was the most difficult part of getting it together. I would suggest just attaching the hanging string at the top or using really thin ribbon to go down the center. Once you have that in, then you glue the last sides together. I used the Two-way glue pen for this and it worked great. I also used the retired Pretties Kit for the beads that I hung at the bottom, but you could use any beads.
