"Draw" on a picture with metallic threads, then fill in the spaces with clear beadlets to allow the image beneath to show. You can create sparkling ornaments, gift tags, and cards using the same technique.

Skill level: beginner

  2. Cut the Treasure Tape to be 3" x 3". Remove the white backing and lay centered on your ornament image. Remove the red liner to expose the top sticky area.
  3. Lay the green and red cabochons on the ornament.
  4. Lay the Emerald metallic braid on the ornament in curls, swirls, etc. as desired.
  5. Lay the satin ribbon around the edge of the tape area, overlapping, folding and pressing into the tape as you go along.
