package or die cut snow flakes
ribbon and bells of choice
Tim Holtz woodlands tree and wreath
Miniature reindeer found in the doll house section of most craft stores.
recycled acetate from various packages
recycled cold medicine box
window die cut "several companies have these but I found with a rectangle and a small pair of scissors you can do the same..the key is layering.
Last but not least liquid snow and glitter...we all have glitter..but if by chance the snow is a challenge to get you can take cornstarch and or baking soda mixed with very little white glue and BAM!!! Snow chunks!
