Recycled an aluminum piece from a frozen oj container. After die cutting the bell using a Tim Holtz die and TH Vagabond which took 4 passes thru (2 each way back & forth) I put the bell inside with music notes punched out. Figured that the metal is too sharp to be used as an ornament; thus reason for putting inside. Also I cut my finger taking the metal off the die and did not want anyone else to shed any blood by touching it.
