Some quick and easy 3x3 Snowflake cards

Hi there! How are you guys today? Can you believe it's Wednesday already? Well, for today, I wanted to share something quick and easy for you, partly because I didn't have that much time, but I also thought it would be a good thing to share a project you can put together pretty quickly for the holidays. These 3x3 cards are so fun to make and super easy to assemble! Using a 12" x 12" sheet of cardstock, you can make 8 of these cute little cards. And what's great is, they make cute little gifts! You can package 4 or 8 of these pretty easily. The Jumbo Snowflake punch with a button from the Button Latte set in the middle dresses up the card pretty nicely, don't you think? I used the Christmas Cocoa Specialty paper too - where just a little bit (3" x 1 1/2" piece) goes a long way!
Here's the recipe for you:
{Snowflake 3"x3" Card}
All Supplies Stampin'Up!
*Cardstock: Real Red, Christmas Cocoa Specialty Paper {from the Holiday Mini}, Whisper White
*Accessories: Jumbo Snowflake Punch, Button Latte buttons, Hemp Twine, Mistletoe Ribbon
Hope you liked this little project. Have a great day!

Hi, Rose...I responded to your comment and wasn't sure if you got it. It's funny how it's not very consistent. To answer you question...I graduated in 1993, Biology major. I wish I had known how much I would enjoy paper crafting. I never knew I had an artistic side until later on. A degree in Graphic Design or something similar would have been better. :-) Where did you live? I lived on Glenrock for 3 years, then moved to an apt. on Veteran. Fun times! I miss football most of all. And you married a Trojan? How brave :-).
