SNOWFLAKE TUTORIAL ~ (Retired)

Snowflake Tutorial with the Snowflake Splendor Suite

from Stampin' Up!

I wanted to create a simple card for my first step-by-step tutorial. If you choose to make one purchase for creating your Christmas and Winter cards this year then this is the one! The suite includes 17 stamps, 6 of them being the most appropriate winter and holiday sentiments, 8 unique dies that have to be seen, a snowflake embossing folder, balmy blue glimmer paper that won't shed it's sparkle, the most delicious watercolour designer series paper, 1/4" iridescent ribbon and the sparkliest adhesive gems.

I wanted to add some more colour so I stamped some big and little snowflakes with balmy blue and pacific point ink. I Balmy Blue I stamped my sentiment. (I thought of it too late but the designer series paper would look even more spectacular embossed with the winter snow embossing folder included in the suite)​

With the second to smallest square stitched die I die cut 2 squares and at the same time die cut a snowflake in each, then from the balmy blue glimmer paper I die cut 2 identical snowflakes.

To Assemble: Create a card base with a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" piece of white cardstock folded in half to create an A2 card. Adhere your stamped designer series paper to the front of your card base spaced evenly. I centered my square die cuts down the center of my card leaving a space between the top and bottom square for my sentiment. I glued the snowflake that was diecut from glimmer paper into the space created in the die cut squares. Adhered my sentiment with dimensionals so as to raise it a bit from the snowflakes.​

Supplies Required: As well as the ones below I should include; a sheet of thick whisper white cardstock 81/2" x 11" cut in half (#140272) 1/2 is used for the card base and the other half is used for the die cuts and sentiment, multipurpose liquid glue (#110755), Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430)
