let it snow, yo!

Also known as The Great 3D Snowflake Tutorial.

First things first:  Please ignore my chipped nail polish in the photos.  Muddy and Nana are both rolling in their graves right now.  Pretend they’re immaculately buffed and polished please.

Second thing:  I wanted to use our new FlipCam to do the first video blog, but I can’t find it.  I think it just might be at Kip’s house… ahem.

Third aka the Tutorial:  I’ve posted the materials and highlight photos below, but HARK!  There is a PDF you can download that has ALL the photos and painstakingly detailed instructions for those of you who, like me, need a little extra help on this kind of thing. It also has extra tips, tricks, and ways to glam up your snowflakes.  You’re welcome.

You’ll need:

Tape
Twine, ribbon, thread, or fishing line
Stapler
Scissors
Paper, 6 sheets per snowflake
Snacks

That’s right… they’re awesome.

I made some large 3-D ones but also some smaller traditional ones like we all made in grade school.  A winter wonderland!

HAVE FUN!

    Wow, Kat!! You should have taught this in conjunction with the bookmaking class… I mean, it is all paper-crafting, right?!?!? I will try this at home (with blunt scissors, just in case).
