Simple Large Snowflake Card

Hi cardmaking friends!  I’m back with another Simple Large Snowflake Card – actually, two of them!  These designs are super easy to mass-produce, perfect for the busy holiday season.

And Happy Halloween!  I had every intention of sharing another spooky card with you today, but I needed to crate a few samples for Spellbinders for my next release…..so Christmas it is, LOL.

The Simon Says Stamp Large Snowflake Die truly steals the show on these quick and easy cars.  I used a bold, modern color combo borrowed (ok, stolen!) from a David’s Tea package from a few years ago  The mix of Poppy and Waterfall cardstock is on fleek – so fresh and fun!

For extra texture I embossed the background of each card, but you could also emboss the snowflakes themselves using the Cheery Snowflake 3D Embossing Folder.  To finish, I added a sentiment using the Label Slides Stamp and Die Set and tied everything together with a touch of shiny gold cord.

The card is embellished with a gold “LOVE • PEACE • JOY” label from the Label Slider stamp and die set, tied with shiny gold cord from Simon Says Stamp. The festive color combo pops beautifully against a backdrop of snowy evergreens.

wo handmade Christmas cards featuring the Spellbinders Large Snowflake Die in bold color combos of Poppy and Waterfall cardstock. Each card has an embossed background—one in red with a teal snowflake and “Winter Wishes” gold label, and the other in teal with a red snowflake and “Love • Peace • Joy” gold label. Both cards are finished with shiny gold cord bows for a festive, modern holiday look.

Step-by-step instructions For the Simple Large  Snowflake Card:

1 – Create the Card Base:

Let’s get started!  Cut two card front panels – One from Spellbinders Waterfall and one from Poppy cardstock, each measuring 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″.  Pop the panels into the Cheery Snowflakes 3D Embossing Folder and emboss for that gorgeous, frosty texture.  Then, attach each panel to a top-folding A2-sized white card base (4-1/4″ x 11″, score and fold at 5-1/2).

2 – Die-Cut the Snowflake

Now for the star of the show – the Large Snowflake Die!  Cut one snowflake from each color (Waterfall and Poppy) using 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ panels of cardstock.  Use foam squares cut in half to pop up the snowflake on the card front at a fun angle – it adds instant movement and dimension.  Open the card and carefully trim off any overhang from the back for a clean finish.

3- Create the Sentiment

Time to shine!  Place a piece of Gold Mirror cardstock into your Misti, stamp the sentiments with VersaMark Ink and white heat emboss for a crips, elegant look.  Die cut the embossed pieces using the label slides dies – they’re the perfect polished touch for these modern snowflake cards.

4 – Finishing Up

Slide a double length of gold cord through each label slide, then add a few foam squares to the back of the sentiment strip to hold it in place while you attach it across the center of the snowflake.  Gently pull the left-side cards around the card front and tie them into a neat bow on the right-hand side.  Tim the tails for a clean finish.

5 – Embellishing

I did consider adding a few gems to the tips of the snowflakes for extra sparkle – but honestly, there’s already plenty going on! Plus, you know how I feel about paying extra postage, haha.
