The"A Charming Christmas" Winter 2021 Collection of digi stamps and SVG Cutzis here to fill you with the spirit of the season and features
Lace SVG Cutz Christmas Charms, Snowmen, Snowflakes, Elegant
Make-a-Card sets including Slimlines, Make-a-Tags and the jewel of the
show is an Elegant Snowflake Ornament 3D Stand and a wonderful digi
stamp set of 17 Winter and Traditional Christmas phrases in an elegant
swirl font completes the collection!
The Elegant Snowflake Ornament Stand 3D SVG Cutz set is a truly magical 3D paper arts set that will take your Christmas and Winter makes to the next level! With this set you can make a 3D spherical frame topped with an lovely snowflake finial on a stunning multi-layer standing base decorated with an elegant lace snowflake and star design. You decide how many sides you want to have to your stand by cutting out multiples of the stand elements, 4 or more is recommended. This set also includes a wonderful large layered snowflake ready for you to make 2D and 3D snowflake ornaments to hang inside the stand. The snowflake ornament is hand drawn and not symmetrical so I've included a mirror image of the snowflake ornament lace overlay and to make a 4 sided 3D ornament you simply cut out 2 sets of the snowflake ornament lace overlay elements. I've also included 2 versions of the mat layer for the snowflake ornament and the stand base, one has a perforated fold line and one without to allow you to make either a 2D or 3D ornament. I also included a mirror image of each layering element too so to make a 4 sided stand you simply cut out 2 sets of each element or you can also make 2D shaker cards and so much more too! Customize the look of this amazing 3D paper arts set to your hearts content with the included layered elements and WOW your family and friends with a truly one of a kind festive make! In addition to this being a magical 3D piece the stand also folds flat and can be mailed out as your festive cards this season! Pair this wonderful set up with the rest of the A Charming Christmas collection of digi stamps & SVG Cutz for a magical season of crafting!

These 2 whimsically quaint Snowmen Charms are based on two of those doodles. This set includes two adorable Snowmen charms that are perfect to hang inside the Elegant Snowflake Ornament Stand and embellish the Make-a-Tags in the collection too!
