A 3D Christmas Card Snow Globe With Measurements!
I saw a similar card on Pinterest designed by Susie Wood recently and wanted to create one on my own. It’s sort of a step card base on the bottom, followed by Deckled Circle Dies shapes and I even have a Window Sheet on the top to resemble glass:
I assembled the very top by adding a small brad from our Round & Square Brads to hold the ribbon in place as you can see in the close-up photo below:
Here’s the how-to:
- Card Base: Copper Clay Cardstock 4-1/4″ x 4″. Score at 1″, 2″ and 3″ on the 4″ side. Fold on the scored lines accordion-style. Set aside.
- Layer 2: Poppy Parade Cardstock (2) cut with the 4-1/4″ Deckled Circles Dies. Set aside.
- Layer 3: Basic White Cardstock (1) cut with the 3-1/2″ Deckled Circles Dies. Glue to one of the Poppy Parade circles. This is for the back of the card.
- Layer 4: Beary Christmas Designer Paper (1) cut with the 3-1/2″ Deckled Circles Dies. Glue to decond Poppy Parade circle. This is for the front of the card.
- Layer 5: Window Sheet (1) cut with the 4-1/4″ Deckled Circles Dies.
- Place the circles in this order:
- Poppy Parade circle with Basic White Circle facedown.
- Poppy Parade circle with Designer Paper face up.
- Window Sheet circle on top of all the circles.
- Pierce a hole at the top with a Paper Piercer.
- Tie a knot with the ribbon and trim the ends at an angle.
- Place to knot of the ribbon inside the small round Brad and poke through all of the circles through the hole.
- Flatten the legs of the Brad on the back with a Bone Folder.
- Add adhesive to the bottom of both circles on the inside about 1/2″ high.
- Fold the card base flat and position to the inside of the circles and press in place to glue.
- Sentiment: Stamp the sentiment from the Festive & Fun stamp set on Basic White Cardstock 2-3/4″ x 1/2″. Glue to card base with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Bling: Add Blooming Pearls on each side of the sentiment.
