This is such a simple quilled card to make... It uses just a bunch of different sized tight coils.

I'm using one of the newest Xmas sentiment stamps from Quietfire Design

I put some Sookwang tape on a piece of 110# white cardstock and die cut with a Sizzix Movers & shapers ornament die. Removed the release paper from the center part of the ornament and adhered my tight red coils. (I'm using the 1/16" made with my pasta machine on the linguini setting). When all were adhered, I sprinkled Ritz Micro fine glitter in "Regal Red". Then lightly hit the top of the red coils with a Versafine Toffee stamp pad and embossed with Queen's Gold.

Removed the release paper from the rest of the ornament and sprinkled with more gold glitter. I found the ornament a bit flimsy, so die cut another one from chipboard and adhered the two together.

Die cut another bauble from a piece of fun foam to use as a stamp. Made a rectangle mask to give me a 1 border all around, lightly adhered it down, brayered my foam with the Toffee, stamping first, second and third generations to give variance. Sponged a bit of red around the edges of the mask for more definition using a dirty red Distress sponge.

Removed my mask and stamped the sentiment with Toffee all over, then hit portions with Satin Red & Olympia Green, stamped and clear embossed.

Adhered some holographic Peel Offs in the corners and a couple dots at the bottom. Adhered my ornament and added a Peel off chain.
