Instructions: Trim a pattern paper from the Snow Kissed Paper Collection to 10.5" x 10.5" and adhere over a coordinating pattern paper from the same collection.

Instructions: All of my patterned papers have inked edges using grey ink. I used a piece of white cardstock as the base of my layout, you cannot see it but you have a base to adhere your patterns to. Cut 2 pieces of the navy patterned paper that are 1" x 12", and adhere them to the top and bottom of the cardstock. Cut the pinecone patterned background to 12" x 9". Be sure to keep the pinecones at the top of the patterned paper. Adhere this to the top portion of the cardstock. From the second piece of the pinecone patterned paper, fussy cut out all of the pinecones. Shape the pinecones and adhere to the layout over top of the original cones using 3D foam tape for dimension. Add Wink of Stella to each pinecone. Cut a piece of the light blue patterned paper that is 0.75" x 2.5" and flag one end. Adhere to the top lefthand corner of the layout. Add a piece of a border strip to the flag as well that is 0.75" wide. My title started on the bottom portion of the flag, using Thickers letter stickers.
Using the white glitter paper, I hand cut portions to create the look of snow covered rolling hills. I used a total of 5 pieces. Adhere these pieces to the bottom portion of the layout.
Stamp and die cut 3 large, 2 medium and 3 small spruce trees using dark green ink. I added colour to the trunks using my dual brush marker. I wanted the look of snow on my trees to match the snow in my photo. So I used whipped spackle, and a putty knife to apply it. I kept the spackle thick and a little globby in places for a snowy effect. Let dry. Then I added the diamond Stickles to all of my snowy bits for that extra sparkle. Let dry.
I matted my cropped 4" x 6" photo in glitter paper, dark green and navy cardstock. Adhere to the layout using 3D foam tape. I then added all of my trees. Some I adhered straight to the layout and others I popped up. I tucked one under the edge of my photo, and some slightly under the snow layers I created.

Follow this video for "out of the box" die cutting instructions: https://www.heartfeltcreations.us/video/74/quick-dimension-and-sparkling-backgrounds.
Instructions: Cut a piece of Vellum 4 1/4" X 11", score at 5 1/2" and fold. Stamp one side of card base with snowflake background stamp using Versamark ink, dust with embossing powder and heat set. Be careful not to melt Vellum. Stamp two sets of each of the snowflakes onto extra Vellum using Versamark, dust with embossing powder and heat set. Cut these with matching die. Off set & glue flakes together and add rhinestone to centers. Stamp Frosty on a 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" piece of white cardstock using black ink. Color trees with YG67, 63, & 61. Color Frosty's cap and boots using B97, 95, 93, & 91. Color Frosty's body using C3, 1, 0, & 00. Use C5 for buttons and shade underneath with C3. Nose is done with YR07, 02, & E19. Cheeks are R30 & blend out with Colorless Blender. Color scarf by alternating stripes using YG09, 06, & G28, then R39, 37, 35, & 32. Snip cardstock from edge down to snowbank, between trees and Frosty's boot and skate that are in the air. On the opposite side snip in between the tree & the bottom of Frosty's mitten. Roughly cut around Frosty with scissors so he will fit into the matching die. Following the video listed above, slip the body into the die from front side, leaving the snow bank on the top side of the die. Line up the upper part, tape in place & die cut. From the edges fussy cut the snow bank and trees as pictured to remove excess & create the little scene. Don't worry about the width, you will trim that away after gluing to vellum. Stamp the sentiment on the right corner with black ink. Before gluing in place, make two plain white snowbanks for the back of the card by placing the die cut scene onto white cardstock 3" X 4 1/4" and pencil mark the curve of the bank and then scissor cut across the top. You can glue these in place, back to back on the un-embossed side of the card base. This step sturdies the card and gives you a place to stamp a sentiment on the inside. Trim away excess on edges. Glue your Frosty scene to the card front & trim away excess on each side. String a ribbon around the top, tie a small double bow string the charm through the knot and then glue in place as pictured. Attach the snowflakes with pop-dots, I only used three of the four I made. Add some Stickles on snow banks and a few dots here and there to complete your card.

Instructions: To make the shadow box, score a pattern paper from the Snow Kissed paper pad at 3/4", 1 1/2", 2 1/4" and 3". Repeat this on all four sides. On one of the sides, score a short line at 3 3/4" and 8 1/4" down till the second score line that you scored previously. Repeat this on the opposite side. Next make a cut on these two shorter lines till the second score line. Then make cuts on the sides that does not have the shorter lines, from the top to the fourth score line. Go 1/2" upward and then cut further diagonally till it meets the cut mark on the shorter line. Remove the cut out section. Repeat this on the other side and also on both the sides of the opposite page. Now there is four cut out sections from four corners. Fold along the score inwards and secure using the adhesive dries clear glue to give it the shadow box frame.
To make the base of the card, Cut a white card stock 12" x 6" and fold along the 6" mark. Distress the edges with Chipped Sapphire Distress ink. Adhere the shadow box to the base of the card. Cut out the pictures of the letter box, snowy scene, snow man from the Paper pad. Cut out Spruce trees using the Spruce die and apply distress inks. Cut out the fence from the Celebrate the season paper pad using the Festive Gate die. To build the snow scene, tear some paper strips from the paper pad and adhere in layers inside the base of the shadow box. Add the letter box with 3d foam tape. Add the spruce trees and snowman. Finally cut the festive gate into two and adhere on the two sides. Add presents cut from Celebrate the Season paper collection. To make snow, apply modelling paste on the shadow box, on the fence, and base of the card. Sprinkle glitter and let it dry.
To make flowers, cut out few die cuts from Classic sunflower die. Add a little green ink on the edges. Apply glue and sprinkle glitter. Add prills in the center. Arrange on the shadow box as shown along with leaves cut from classic leaf die.

Instructions: My card is 6" X 6". Cut a piece of cardstock 6" X 12" and score at 3" and 9". Cover the inside of the card with some of the paper collection. Stamp the sentiment on the middle panel. I added bling to the two small pieces of the card just to add some interest. Close the card and cover the outside panels with some more of the pretty paper from the paper collection. Next I die cut three of the Rectangle dies and glued them together to give some extra strength to the piece. Stamp, color and cut out the snowman and add him to the smaller elements of the die and glue that piece on the left side of the card front panel. (Be sure to leave the right half of the piece hanging off the panel. This enables it to interlock with the front piece and hold the card together). Next apply the frame to the right hand side of the card front, also leaving about half of it hanging off the side. Stamp, emboss and cut out the snowflakes and the tree. I used dimensional tape to pop up the pieces. Now you should be able to interlock the left side with the right side of the card front and allow it to stay folded together. If my instructions weren't quite clear, there are numerous videos on the Internet showing how to do this.

You can save all the snowflakes that are loose for another project.

The inside of the card has a base layer of navy blue cut at 5 1/4" x 5 1/4". Die cut a border of squares from the Essential Border Die Set at the bottom. Thread some navy and white baker's twine and tie a bow. I selected some paper from the Snow Kissed Paper Collection and trimmed it to fit with an even 1/8" border around the base layer. I selected one that was light enough in color to allow the sender to add a personal note. The layers were adhered with double sided tape.
White opaque dots were applied for a snowy look. Specks of designer glue that dries clear were applied to the snowflakes and snow. I sprinkled some gorgeous white Gala Glitz for some extra shine.
