How can I use a Christmas ornament to make a mold for a paperweight?

I have one of those plastic Christmas ornaments that is in halves. I want to make a paperweight for a friend. I have tried this before and it would not come out of the plastic ornament. Can I spray it with something before I put in the resin, so it will pop right out after curing?

A picture would be very helpful so I could see exactly what you are referring to.
You can coat your mold with vegetable oil or a thin coat of petroleum jelly.

Thank you!
You get a spray from the hardware store for this purpose.
