Instructions:
From the red cardboard, cut a piece sized 6.3 inches x 3.7 inches.

Punch an evenly spread row of Christmas trees on both of the longer sides, as indicated on the pattern sheet.
From the white and green paper, cut squares sized 1.1 inches x 1.1 inches.
At the back of the red cardboard, glue the white and green squares in place over the punched Christmas trees. Remember to alternate between white and green squares.
Cut the riffled cardboard to the correct size (5.5 inches x 1.4 inches) and glue it in place, as indicated on the pattern sheet.

Fold the napkin ring into a tube and glue together where it overlaps.*
Tie the ribbon around the napkin ring and make a bow. Add a drop of glue to the knot of the bow, so that the bow won't come loose.
Glue the Christmas ornament in place and voila!
*Tip: Folding the tube around an object, such as a Pritt Stick, will help you to form a neater tube.
