My Big Shot sandwich (from bottom to top) has the Cutting Pad (1113475), Scallop Circle Die (113468), Cutting Pad (1113475) and piece of cardstock folded in half as my shim on top. TIP: Designate one Cutting Pad as base and the other as cutter and keep that consistent to ensure the best cut. I also rotate and flip my "cutter" pad to make sure it stays even over time.

After cutting out the scallop circle, you will next cut out the card holder back. Here you take the 2"x5" strip of Christmas Cocoa Specialty (116770). You line it up to the top of the scallop circle die. This allows you to only get a little less than half the circle. You run that through the Big Shot in the same sandwich as used for the scallop circle earlier. When you are finished you end with one complete circle and then a half circle.
Now you can cut the regular circle for the front of your ornament. Using that 4"x4" of Christmas Cocoa Specialty DSP, you cut a 3 3/4" circle with any cutter of your choice. I used my Cricut to make a quick cut, but the Circle Scissors Plus (112530) works just a well.

Using the Round Tab punch(208340), punch out a round tab from a scrap piece of Real Red cardstock (102482). Now, all the pieces are cut out and you are ready to assemble.
You take the half scallop circle and flip it over. On the side you don't want showing, you put a bit of Snail Adhesive (104332) on each half circle on the edge. You want to make sure the middle has no adhesive so you can insert your gift card. Then, you adhere it to the back of the scallop circle. I find it lines up pretty well, not perfect but really good. TIP: If you want to ensure that the two pieces line up exactly, you can cut them both at the same time with your die and Big Shot.

Next, take your 3 3/4" circle and adhere it to the front of the scallop circle.

Now, take your round tab that you punched and put a strip of snail adhesive straight across the middle.
Create a loop with the 4' strip of Silver Elastic cord (109866) and adhere the ends to the middle of the round tab where you place that strip of adhesive.
Add adhesive to bottom edge of the tab. Fold over and attach to the top of the scallop circle. When attaching, but sure to line up with back of the ornament so the holder is upright.
You now have a finished ornament gift card holder that you can decorate the front as you see fit.
I hope this tutorial was helpful. It is the very first one I have ever done, so please leave me comments if I left anything out.
