Detailed snowflake

 I’m on a mission to use up some of my older stash, 

and at the same time use some of my new “toys” that have been waiting to come out to play.

My aim is to make more Christmas cards each month, to avoid the rush,

and I wanted to make some quick and simple ones using these two Dies.

Here I’ve used the negative of the circle die, which I’m hoping works?

The snowflake has lovely detail, so I cut some different coloured snippets of glittery paper.

The circular greeting was cut from the middle of some old cards meant for Iris folding.

I’ve kept the positive die cut for later, along with snippets from the card blanks.

The pieces with the apertures can be used for sentiments etc.

So I’m using some card stock that would otherwise probably just stay in the drawer.

Some had a separate piece with the the aperture, so I used the card blank,

and some I just cut them in half and used them as a layer.

The tree snippet above will appear at a later date :)

Here’s the small batch.

I’ve also got a rule that they’re not put away until I’ve stamped an insert,

which is a time saver when it comes to writing in them!

I’m skipping over to the Snippets Playground with this homework,

so do visit the treehouse to check out the prize bundle, and see all the inspiration.

I’m also taking this to Darnell’s NBUS as both these little dies are never before used schtuff!
