Darsie certainly does have the Midas touch.  I do believe every sheet of paper she touches turns to gold! The gilt edge ornament she made for us today is certainly fit for a King and would be such a fabulous project to make for your friends to make them feel so very special. And though this project may look difficult, it really isn’t. Darsie just used a variety of dies, cut her pieces, gilded the edges and layered them up with dimensionals in between.  Add a simple sentiment, a Prima Poinsettia, silk bow and DONE!  LOVE this project so much.  There are a variety of Heirloom Ornament dies that could be used for similar ornaments, but I must admit this original from 2010 has always held a special place in my heart.  The shape is so beautifully vintage!  Well, let’s get back to the ornament Darsie made for today:

Stunning!  Note that Darsie even gilded the edges of the Prima Poinsettia with her gold pen.

And, YES!!!  Darsie is giving this gorgeous ornament away to one lucky blog viewer.
