Instructions: Cut a 6" x 12" strip of cardstock and fold to create the base. Cut a 6" x 6" panel of light blue background paper. Distress the edges and adhere to the card base. Cut a square panel from the paper collection. Trim the sides slightly, then distress the edges. Adhere to the card base with foam dots. Cut two strips of acetate around 7" and 8" long. Cut a wavy edge into each with the longer strip being a little more narrow than the other. Apply Dries Clear glue along the wavy edge and sprinkle with glitter. Wrap the two around the base of the card with the longer one in front, creating a curved effect. Cut a narrow decorative strip from the paper collection, and wrap around the front. Cut a sentiment tag from the paper collection and distress the edges. Use 3 layers of foam dots in the centre, and glue on the edges, adhere to the lower right part of the card. Stamp and die cut two sets of spruce trees using dark blue ink. Shape the leaves with a stylus, and apply fine glitter to the front using Dries Clear glue with a fine metal nozzle. Adhere all trees using small foam dots. Adhere the largest tree to the left side of the card, on the card base.
Adhere the middle sized tree to the acetate overlapping the large tree. Adhere an extra foam dot behind the tree to flatten out the acetate on that side of the card. Adhere a middle and small sized tree on the right side of the card above the sentiment, and another small one to the acetate on the front right of the card. Stamp the snowflakes image with embossing ink and sprinkle with Wow embossing powder. Heat set, then die cut. Shape the snowflakes with a stylus, then adhere to the card as shown with foam dots. Layer some of the larger snowflakes. Apply some Dries Clear glue to the snowy areas in the background area and sprinkle with fine glitter.
