Matt and layer onto Vista Pearl card and then onto Crystal White pearl card, glittering the edges of the white piece with Crystal Crush Sparkelicious glitter.

2 Trim a sheet of blue mirror card to size and attach it to the base card. Next, using the Snowflake Frame die set, cut the two largest dies in Crystal White Pearl card and add Crystal Crush Sparkelicious glitter around the sides.

3 Matt and layer on top of the largest Snowflake Frame die-cut Jupiter Pearl card and patterned paper from the Christmas Festive Fashion paper pad and secure onto the base card with foam pads.

4 Repeat this process, only this time using the smaller Snowflake Frame die-cut and attach with 3D foam pads. Matt and layer the Baby Owls on top, attaching once again with 3D foam pads.

5 Fix the bow in place on the right-hand corner with Pinflair glue and attach a large pearl. Using Art Glitter Dries-Clear glue, glue the pearls from the Frosty Christmas Bling Box onto the large Snowflake Frame.

6 Stamp and heat-emboss the sentiment from the Snowflake Sentiment stamp and die set onto Crystal White pearl card using the Versafine Clair Black inkpad and WOW Clear Gloss embossing powder. Matt and layer onto a piece of Jupiter Pearl card and attach using 3D foam pads.
