Cut designer paper and glimmer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
- 2 pieces each 2-1/2" x 4-7/8" of blue and purple watercolor wash design from Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper
- 2 pieces each 3/8" x 12" of scattered white snowflakes on blue and purple watercolor wash design from Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper
- 2 tiny pieces each about 3/8" square of scattered white snowflakes on blue and purple watercolor wash design from Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper
- 2" square of Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper
- 1-1/2" square of Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper
Put a line of Tear & Tape Adhesive all around the bottom rim of the Rectangle Tin. Remove the protective backing. Adhere one of the thin strips of Snowflake Splendor Designer Paper to the bottom rim of the tin. Start in the back of the tin. Adhere one of the tiny squares of Snowflake Splendor Designer Paper to the small gap left between the ends of the long strip of designer paper.
Put a line of Tear & Tape Adhesive all around the top rim of the Rectangle Tin. Remove the protective backing. Adhere the remaining thin strip of Snowflake Splendor Designer Paper to the top rim of the tin. Start in the back of the tin. Adhere the other tiny square of Snowflake Splendor Designer Paper to the small gap left between the ends of the long strip of designer paper.
Slide one corner of one of the large rectangles of Snowflake Splendor Designer Paper into the angle of the Detailed Trio Punch that corner rounds. Use the guides on the base of the punch to line up the corner in the punch. Press down firmly on the center of the punch to punch. Repeat with the other 3 corners. Then, repeat with the other large rectangle of Snowflake Splendor Designer Paper.
Adhere one of the punched rectangles of Snowflake Splendor Designer Paper to the bottom of the tin.
As you are ready to stamp using the Snowflake Wishes Set, place the cardstock or designer paper on the Stampin' Pierce Mat. Using the mat will help you get a cleaner image each time you stamp.
Mount the "May Your Season Sparkle," "Our Friendship is One of a Kind," or "Happy Hanukkah" sentiment from the Snowflake Wishes Set on an appropriate size block. Ink it up with the Highland Heather Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the remaining punched rectangle of Snowflake Splendor Designer Paper.
Mount the grouping of small snowflakes image from the Snowflake Wishes Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Balmy Blue Ink Pad. Stamp it above the right side of the stamped sentiment on the designer paper. Re-ink the stamp and stamp it below the left side of the stamped sentiment.
Insert gift certificate, gift card, candy, or small gift into the tin. Close the lid.
Cut a 19" piece of the Snowflake Splendor 1/4" Ribbon.
Lay the tin across the center of the ribbon so the ribbon will wrap around the tin horizontally and the loose ends will stick out on the right side of the tin. Put pieces of Tear & Tape Adhesive across the ribbon on the lid of the tin ONLY to hold the ribbon in place.
Remove the protective backings from the Tear & Tape strips on the lid of the tin. Put Stampin' Seal on the back of the stamped and punched designer paper rectangle. Adhere the designer paper rectangle to the top of the lid. Make sure the sentiment is right side up.
Tie the loose ends of the ribbon on the right side of the tin in a bow to hold the tin closed. Trim the ends.
Pick out the detailed snowflake die that cuts out a 1-3/4" wide snowflake and the detailed snowflake die that cuts out a 1-1/4" wide snowflake from the So Many Snowflakes Dies. Put them on top of the Glimmer Paper squares on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so the glittery, Balmy Blue side is facing up. Run through the tool. Use the Take Your Pick Die Brush Tip and Take Your Pick to remove the pieces.
Use a Mini Stampin' Dimensional in the center of the back of each of the snowflakes to adhere them to the lid of the tin so the larger snowflake is in the upper left corner and the smaller snowflake is in the lower right corner.
Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up 2 large Balmy Blue gems from a sheet of Blue Adhesive-Backed Gems making sure that you get the adhesive backings as well. Adhere them to the centers of the glimmer paper snowflake cut outs.
Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up 3 iridescent snowflakes from a sheet of Snowflake Adhesive-Backed Embellishments making sure that you get the adhesive backings as well. Adhere one in the lower left corner of the tin lid and the other two in the upper right corner of the tin lid.
