You will also need:

Paper trimmer

Quick-drying adhesive

Ribbon - 1/8 inch red, 3/8 inch decorative red

Step 2
Download the PDF for the Mistle-Toes Card Project Pattern. You will use the large heart, large square, and large hexagon pegboards to create your projects. If you are using a clear pegboard, slide the actual-size pattern underneath it. Place your beads following the pattern.

Step 3
Ask an adult to fuse your designs. Place your pegboard on a flat, heat-safe surface. Set a household iron to the medium setting. Place ironing paper over the pegboard. In a circular motion, begin to iron the project. When ironed properly, the beads will still have open centers. DO NOT OVER-IRON as this will cause the beads to close and can make assembly of your project more challenging. Let the design cool.

Step 4
Remove the paper and bead design from the pegboard. Flip the design over to expose the non-fused side. Repeat the fusing. Let cool completely. Once the design is cool, peel off the ironing paper. Your pegboards and ironing paper are reusable.

Note: Beads need heat for about 10-20 seconds per side to fuse evenly. Lift the paper occasionally to see how the beads are fusing. Additional heating time may be required.

Step 5
ASSEMBLY: Lace the thin ribbon through the indicated beads to hold the ornament. Attach the berries to the feet with quick-drying adhesive. Add a bow over the berries with the wider ribbon.

Step 6
To make the card, cut a 6 x 12 inch piece of green cardstock and fold in have for a top-folding card. Cut the patterned paper to 5 1/2 inch square and attach to the center of the card front with the tape runner.

Step 7
Position your Mistle-Toes ornament as shown in the photo and attach it with clear adhesive dots. This will enable the design to be detached and used as an ornament by the one receiving the card.

Step 8
Print and cut out the holiday message from the pattern sheet. Attach it to the card front with the tape runner.
