I made this snowflake ornament by starting with the plastic snowflake from the $1 store (3 for $1). The boy and snowman was cut layer 1 and shadow from A Child's Year. The PEACE banner, upper snowflake, flowers, and leaves were cut from Artiste. Used Stickles to decorate, and hot glue gun to put it all together, popping up the cut-out with foam squares.
I have another version that I'll post later this week. These are going to be gifts to relatives and/or gift tags on larger gifts. I would like to make some in a blue palatte as well.
