MORE TIPS!!!
Trace the circles of card stock
and the Christmas paper one size larger
than the circle of the snowflake.
For even more detail and dimension
to your snowflake ornament, you can
trace the circle for the Christmas paper
another size larger than the card stock circle!
Instead of using the printed Christmas paper,
substitute shiny, foil Christmas paper in
solid colors of gold, silver, red, or green paper
to glue on the back of the card stock circle.
For some Extra Pizazzzzzz,
You can also use the shiny paper to glue on
the front of the card stock before you
glue the snowflake on the card stock circle!
