What You’ll Need to Make a Frozen Inspired Snowflake Wand:

• DCWV Silver Cardstock from Glitzy Stack
• Quick Dry Glue
• Wooden Skewer Stick
• Tulle or Ribbon
• Silhouette Cutting Machine

How to Make a Frozen Inspired Snowflake Wand:

1. Head over to the Silhouette Online Store and grab the Snowflake Set file for just $0.99. Once you have purchased the Snowflake set head over to your Silhouette Studio Software and go to file->library->and upload snowflakes onto a new screen.
2. Once you open the file you’ll notice 3 snowflakes appear on the screen but for this particular project we’re only going to use the one on the bottom. Right click the image and select “release compound path” then right click again and select “ungroup”.  Once the images are ungrouped you can delete the snowflakes you won’t be using and that means I deleted 2.  Once the snowflakes are deleted move the one you’re going to be using to the top left hand corner and resize to 4.060” length x 4.172” width.
3. Once you are happy with the size of the snowflake right click on the image and select duplicate overlay so you have 2 equal snowflakes for this project.
4. Now it’s time to head over to cut settings.  Make sure you select cardstock as your material and turn your blade to a 5.  (Note: The only reason I’m using a 5 blade is because I find this is the lowest setting that will cut through glittered cardstock.)
5. Apply your glittered DCWV paper to your cutting mat and feed into your machine and click send to silhouette.  Once the cuts are complete remove from your mat and it’s time for assembly.
6. Lay your snowflake glitter side up and glue the very bottom portion and apply your wooden skewer stick, allow a few minutes to dry.
7. Now add glue to the top of the wooden skewer and apply the 2^nd snowflake glitter side up and hold until it’s in place.
8. Now tie a bow with ribbon or tulle in your favorite color and enjoy your Frozen Inspired Snowflake Wand!
