Vintage Snowflake Cards


I made a bunch of Snowflake Cards to attach to gifts this season.  They were very easy to put together and a lot of fun to individualize!

The Snowflake shape was created from the Christmas 2011 Mini Pattern cardstock.  Each sheet has 9 patterns on it, so you can make 9 cards from one sheet. The shape was cut from my Cricut using the Winter Lace cartridge.


The snowflake center is made from layering various vintage buttons and Jenni Bowlin chipboard buttons. Each one is unique, just like snowflakes in nature!


The front and back of the cards are attached with a paper hinge cut from the Fabulous Finds cartridge.  A ribbon is laced through the hinge.


I was inspired to make an extra special card by cutting out the snowflake from my favorite piece of pattern on the mini patterned paper sheet and layering a bunch of white vintage buttons for the center.  I may just need to save this one!

Supplies:
Christmas 2011 Mini Pattern Sheet
Chipboard Buttons
vintage buttons
cardstock
ribbon
