Make an Embossed Snowflake Ornament
- Blue card stock
- Crafts knife
- Glitter embossing powder
- Crafts glue
- Embossing heat tool
- Paper plate
- Silver grommet
- Sheer white ribbon
- Transfer a snowflake pattern onto blue card stock and cut out using a crafts knife.
- Mix 1 part embossing powder with 2 parts crafts glue. Using a finger, apply the mixture to one side of the snowflake.
- Heat the mixture with the heat tool until it bubbles. Sprinkle more embossing powder over the surface while the mixture is wet.
- When the surface has cooled, tap off the excess embossing powder on a paper plate.

- Thread white ribbon through the grommet for the hanging loop.
I think this was a HUGE waste of time! I decided to teach my little girl how to make it and she started CRYING because she hated it so much! If i were you, don't waste your time on this!
