INSTRUCTIONS:

1 Score and fold the A3 white card and cut in half. Cover a sheet of Lapis Lazuli pearl card with a double-sided sticky sheet, then die-cut it using the Scalloped and Pierced Rectangle die set. Die-cut the Snowflake Background using white card. Remove the cover from the double-sided sticky sheet and attach the Snowflake Background to the middle, then cover with Starlit Night Sparkelicious glitter, then secure to the base card with foam pads.

2 Cut an aperture from two different-sized dies from the Scalloped and Pierced Rectangle die set. Place onto a scoreboard and score a line around the four sides, then secure onto the base card with foam pads.

3 Cut and emboss numerous flowers from the Christmas Poinsettia Cut and Emboss folder in white card. Colour slightly with Chipped Sapphire Oxide ink and apply Crystallina Sparkelicious glitter, covering all the petals using a glue pen. Shape the petals, adhere together using 3D glue gel and secure a jewel from the Frosty Christmas Bling Box to the middle of each one.

4 Die-cut the Festive Fronds in white card and cover with Shimmering Silver Sparkelicious glitter. Cut out the foliage from the Floral Frames and Flutters foiled acetate. Working from the back, glitter with Blue Ice and Silver Crystal Sparkelicious glitters, then attach the foliage and flowers to the main card using 3D glue gel.

5 Stamp and heat-emboss the sentiment from the Christmas Heart Wreath set using Polished Silver embossing powder and a clear embossing inkpad onto white card. Matt and layer onto Lapis Lazuli pearl card and secure in place with foam pads. Decorate the snowflake background using pearls from the Bling Box to finish.
