This simple to make card is a fun project that will make anyone smile. Homemade cards are always nice to receive.

This is pretty card will make a wonderful birthday, holiday or thinking of you card through out the winter season. You can add your own greeting to the inside of the card using your Cricut. The snowman can be cut out of white card or even white glitter card stock to give him that wintery feeling look. The scalloped edging gives it a more prettier look than the traditional square card.

Instructions

Cutting Out the Let It Snow Card

  • Unzip the download file.

    upload button

  • then select the card, score line and wording
  • Then click on the Make It button
  • The prepare screen will appear
  • ****Please note if you are cutting the snowman out of white glitter cardstock you will not need to cut out his eyes and mouth pieces, instead you can use black liquid pearls to create these on the snowman along with his buttons.****
  • Now if everything looks correct on it, click on the continue button
    The next screen will be where you will select the type of card stock you are using. If you do not see the material in your material favorites, click on "browse all materials" to find the weight of cardstock that you are using. For example the white Cardstock I used is medium weight, you will need to select "Medium Weight"..
    Once you have Design Space set, you are now ready to prepare your mat. I used a brayer when placing the Cardstock on the mat, this helps in making sure that the paper is adhered to the mat and will help in keeping the paper from ripping or moving when it is being cut.
