2. Using the E-Z Runner™ Permanent Dots adhesive, attach this white embossed piece to the card base.



3. To create the winter scene, adhere a 3D Foam Frame to a piece of patterned paper and then heat embossed it with Stampendous Shabby Blue Embossing Enamel.





4. After a few moments of cooling off, cut out the Frame and prepare to design the winter scene.



5. First, make the snowy hills by cutting 3 wavy strips of white card stock and adhering them to the inside bottom edge of the frame.





6. Then add the other Designer Shapes: 3D Foam Trees and one 3D Foam Star.



7. Dump white glitter onto the trees and silver glitter onto the star, rubbing in, then brushing off excess.



8. The Crafty Power Tape helped attach the ribbon securely. Place one medium Dodz™ behind the knot of the bow.



9. Finally, stamp and heat emboss the sentiment “Celebrate” and adhere it with a strip of Crafty Foam Tape.





Here is a photo of the dimension the Foam Adhesives and Designer Shapes add to the card. It’s still flat enough to slide into a standard envelope and mail in the post.
