Snowflake Ornament Card

Still plugging along on using up scraps

to make holiday cards.

This particular card uses several scraps.

The small white piece that has dry embossed polka dots,

the Riding Hood Red half of a top note die

the white snowflake punch

and the red chipboard snowflake are all bits and 

pieces that were in the scrap box.

I added glitter around the edges of the white piece.

I stamped snowflakes onto the Riding Hood Red Top Note die cut

with Riding Hood Red ink.

I think I should have punched out a half circle at 

the top edge of it for the stamped center of the snowflake

to sit in. I thought about it, then thought I might end up

ruining it, that it would be just out of alignment enough

that I wouldn't like it. Of course now looking at it 

completed I wish I had tried it. I also wish I had adhered the

top note die cut a little further down on the card front. Oh well.....

There is a thin line of Tombow glue around the edges

of the die cut to hold it in place.

I adhered layers of decorative paper and punches to the chipboard snowflake

(but I painted the raw chipboard edges red first to finish it off).

The chipboard snowflake and decorative paper came from

the limited edition kit that was available through

Country Living Magazine a few years ago.

I attached a piece of ribbon to the back then

covered the tails with card stock cut to fit.

 I managed to use several scraps for this card

and make it into a gift as well, an ornament !

Thanks for looking =)
