3. Send the cut out flower through a crimping tool.

4. Color the paper with Tim Holtz Adirondack Color Wash Cranberry. Let Dry.

5. Cut into the center of the flower slightly to give the petals more movement.
6. Paint the glossy accents onto the front of your flower with your finger. As it is drying, bend the ends of the petals inward to curl them.

7. Place your two flowers on top of each other and secure together with the large brad from the We R Memory Keepers Neutral Glitter Brad Collection. I pulled the pollen off an old flower to give the brad a more realistic look
8. Punch out large snowflakes using the EK Snowflake. Punch out the small snowflakes with EK punch Snow Flurries. Ink the edges and slightly glitter with Stickles.
9. Tie the box up with jute.
