Materials…
- Kaisercraft Vagabond patterned paper
- Bazzill cardstock
- American Crafts embossing powders
- Hero Arts Holiday Dolls stamp
- Sizzix Snowflake die
- White gel pen
- Button
- String
- Corner-rounder punch
- Woodware FingerGuard trimmer and straight, twist, scoring & wave blades
To create…
1 Use the straight blade to cut a piece of card to 4.25×11″, then exchange the blade for the scoring blade and score the card fold at 5.5″.
2 Use the straight blade to cut a panel 3″ deep to go across the centre of the card. Stamp the sentiment onto the panel with VersaMark ink and heat-emboss with white embossing powder.
3 Cut a snowflake out of mount board and the same snowflake from patterned paper, adhere together and allow the glue to dry.
4 Stamp the sentiment onto a piece of co-ordinating card and cut out to measure 3×2″. Use the wave blade to cut a small strip of kraft cardstock to place down the left-hand edge. Add faux stitching using a white gel pen, then attach the sentiment block to the card with dimensional adhesive.
5 Attach the snowflake to the bottom-right edge of the sentiment block.
6 Wrap string around the card and thread the ends through a button, finishing it in a bow.
7 Use the twist blade in your trimmer to cut the bottom of the card, then cut a narrow strip of cream cardstock using the same blade and attach to the bottom of the card.
