Created: December 5, 2017

One of the gals brought in the Tunnel die cut card structure from Heartfelt Creations. She had circles and ovals etc. I came home and decided I wanted to make one with a snowflake... So I created a file with my SCAL software and cut with my Silhouette machine. The bottom layer is the actual snowflake and the upper 2 layers are blackout shadows of the snowflake.

I'm using an A Way With Words dies "Noel" and  "Dec 25" from Elizabeth Craft Designs, also available on Quietfire Design HERE and HERE

I'm also using a quotes, design elements and background stamps from Quietfire Design.

("Snowflakes Are The Fairydust..."); ("Snowflakes Are The Butterflies..." 6pce set); ("Let It Snow - large"); ("Christmas Cuddler Words" 9pce set); (Good Friends Are Like..."); ("Those We Love Are Like..." 2pce set); ("Merry Christmas Background")

To cover the hinge area, stamped the background Merry Christmas on white cardstock using Versafine "Blue Lagoon" and clear embossing. Trimming down and adhering.

Adhered a blue gauze ribbon, wrapping it around the back and then using it to create my closure, adding a huge clear diamond (the top of a Nuvo bottle that fell off...) and Velcro tab.

The large snowflake are the negative drop outs from the pages. I bordered the largest bottom layer with a Silver Krylon pen. The middle layer I left as is and adhered both together. The top layer I inked with Versamark and embossed with Emerald Creek "Soft Fallen Snow". adhered to other 2 layers with 3D foam tape. Adhered the little snowflake (cut from a dollar store garland...), painted with the silver pen and adhered to snowflake, then to card.

Stamped the quote using the blue lagoon, clear embossed.

Die cut the Noel from a dark blue cardstock.

Painted the edge of the snowflake with the silver Krylon pen.

Stamped the quote on white cardstock using the blue and clear embossed. Die cut with a Spellbinders oval die set. Sponged edges with some Distress blue.

Adhered a white snowflake button and some aqua rhinestones.
