Snow!


This project is a great way to use the packaging for the Prima Alpha Box. Here's the product list:

Prima Alpha Box - Blue 509941
American Crafts Brads - Mini White
American Crafts Card Stock - Lagoon
Die Cuts With A View Glitter Card Stock - White
Lilac Round Eyelets
Doodlebug Jellishments - Whimsical Winter
Doodlebug Whimsy Wafers - Whimsical Winter
Doodlebug Rick Rack - Bubble Blue
Doodlebug Buttons - Frosty Assortment
Doodlebug Crushed Velvet Card Stock - Lily White
Blue Mini Brad
Winter Snowflake Assortment Brads

The combination of the DCWV Glitter card stock and the Doodlebug Velvet card stock gives this a true illusion of snowy hillsides. The letters on the top (SNOW) are the letters that come in the box. This is a very affordable gift and you still have lots of product left over for yourself when you're done! Just make sure you use a glue gun to attach the rick rack because the word "snow" attaches there and as I found out from my own experience making this, a glue stick is just not enough! The weight of the letters just pulled it over until I put down a very thin line of glue from the glue gun and it stays up just fine as you can see.
