3-D Snowflakes



We certainly have been getting a lot of snow lately. In between trips outside to shovel the snow I made some 3-D snowflake decorations.





I used Rosette Frozen Snowflake for the base of the snowflake and Snowflake Layers for the rest of the snowflake.

The base rosette layers is sized to a height of 12 inches, and is cut from white cardstock. The finished rosette is about 7.5 inches across.

The Snowflake layers are cut from glitter cardstock. I used the layer with the solid center as the bottom layer. It was cut from white glitter cardstock and is about 5.5 inches across. The other two layers were cut from two shades of blue or pink glitter cardstock and measure 4.5 inches and 3.8 inches across. I inked each snowflake with coordinating ink.


 The Snowflake Layers were stacked together with foam tape and foam dots to add dimension.

Bottom white layer.

A .75 inch glitter snowflake sticker was put in the center and a .25 inch gel gem sticker added to the center of the glitter snowflake.






These snowflakes make beautiful tree ornaments, but I ended up putting mine in my bow window. Try making some; they're quick and easy, and so pretty!

Happy Winter!
