Instructions:

  1. For the card front: Turn the card with the fold at the top. Cut green snowflakes paper to fit the front, positioning the corner design at the lower right. Glue a 7½" printed ribbon across the paper, 7/8" from the upper edge and glue the ends on the back.
  2. Cut the three flowers from red dots paper and ink the edges red. Stack and glue them to the ribbon as shown. Place a silver flower center in the center of the top flower. Punch the tags from teal striped paper and ink the edges of the 1½" and 7/8" tags black. Mat on white with 1/32" borders.
  3. Stamp “simple joys” on the larger and “blessings” on the smaller tag. Attach the larger tag to the constructed front with a silver mini brad. Glue the smaller tag as shown. Attach a silver snowflake mini Brad Buddy™ over the corner printed snowflake. Add a small ice rox to each small printed snowflake. Glue the constructed front to the card.
  4. For the inside: Cut a 5¾"x3¼" green snowflakes paper, positioning the remainder of the corner design at the upper left. Stamp a swirly “Merry Christmas,” then mat on red dots paper with 3/8" borders. Glue a 5" printed ribbon over the left end, gluing the ends on the back. Cut the two smaller flowers from red dots paper, ink the edges red, and secure to the upper left corner with a white snowflake mini Brad Buddy™. Glue the constructed sentiment centered on the inside.
