Snowflakes Wood Decor
Created by OMC Designer Jill

Supplies Used:

OMC Snowflake Wood Shapes
Tim Holtz : Distress Stain - Walnut
Tim Holtz : Distress Ink Pad - Walnut
Martha Stewart : Acrylic Craft Paint - Pearl Jet Stream, Mother of Pearl, and Wedding Cake
Ranger Ink : Stickles Dry Fine Glitter - Waterfall and Diamond
Mod Podge
Large File for sanding
BoBunny : Snowflake paper
May Arts : Net Ivory and Net Brown

Instructions:
1. Trace the shape of your snowflake onto your paper and cut out.
2. Stain the edges and back of the snowflakes that you will cover with paper.

3. Paint the sides, front and backs of the snowflakes that you are not covering with paper. Apply a base coat of plain white and plain blue before you apply the pearl colors. The paint will cover better. Let dry.
4. For the paper snowflake, glue your paper to your snowflake with mod podge. Apply enough to help the paper adhere well, but not too much! Press down firmly with a brayer. If you don’t have a brayer press very hard with your fingers, making sure everything is secure. Let dry. Sand the edges of the paper to distress the wood and to take off any excess paper that might be hanging over the edges.

5. For the painted snowflakes, sand the edges and the front of the snowflake with a large file to heavily distress the paint.
6. Ink the edges of all the snowflakes. Ink the front of the distressing on the painted snowflakes.
7. Apply a coat of mod podge to the sides and front of each snowflake. Before moving onto the next snowflake, sprinkle glitter from up high to the fronts and sides before the mod podge dries.
8. Drill holes into the sides of one point on each snowflake to have a place to tie a piece of net to hang it.

9. The large snowflake should have the smallest hanger.
10. Staple the smaller snowflakes net to the back of the large snowflake so that they hang from behind at different lengths.

 2. For Tombstone #1, spray the front of the tombstone on an angle with the ink spray. Take the spider web stamp, stamp in an embossing stamp pad, stamp onto the tombstone and cover with embossing powder. Take the tombstone stamp and the small skull stamp, emboss the skull stamp, and cut out. Adhere with a foam square. Cut 3 different sizes and colors in the poison bottles. Ink the edges and cover each bottle with Glossy Accents.
3. For Tombstone #2, mist the front of the tombstone lightly with the ink spray. Take the tree stamp and emboss in black embossing powder. Choose 4 differing sizes of the glitter bat stickers and attach to the tombstone using small foam squares. Take the moon sticker and cut it to fit the tombstone. Using the smallest tombstone in the spellbinders pack, cut a tombstone, write RIP and ink the edges.
4. For Tombstone #3, use the script stamp and stamp all over the tombstone. Mist it with the three ink spray colors. Stamp Happy Halloween onto a piece of orange cardstock, cut out around the phrase, and adhere to the top of the tombstone. Stamp the mirror and cut it out. Cover the center oval of the mirror with the OMC metallic vinyl. Stamp the silhouetted head of the man, cut out and glue to the vinyl.
5. For Tombstone #4, mount the chipboard Eek piece to the tombstone, but cut off the top portion with the cat. Create the pumpkin using a punch. Ink the edges and attach to the tombstone.

BoBunny : Apple Cider Collection Paper
OMC : Brown Vinyl
Stickles Glitter Glue : Lime Green, Cinnamon, Paprika
Mod Podge
Tim Holtz : Distress Ink Pad - Vintage Photo

2. Ink the edges of each paper with the distress ink and the foam blending tool.
3. Very carefully apply Mod Podge onto the block where the paper will go. Try hard not to go over the edge. On this project I wanted to keep the muted look of the block and not apply Mod Podge over the entire front of the paper. Depending on the look you want you could cover the paper with a coat of Mod Podge.
4. Apply your paper and press down firmly. Let dry
5. Cut out the letters you want using a font of your choice. I cut my letters out so that they would fill the space of the block.
6. Apply the letters to each block.
7. Find a small pattern in your paper and apply the Stickles to enhance and bring out the pattern in the paper. Let dry!

Vinyl Lettering
Stickles Gliitter Glue : Purple, Lime Green, Black, Red
EKSuccess : EK Tools - Tarantula Spider Large Punch

Instructions:

1. Using the Versamark ink pad and the Tim Holtz stamp, stamp on the corners of the block with the spider web and apply the embossing powder. Tap off the excess and emboss using a heat gun. I carefully removed any excess embossing powder with a tiny paint brush in places it should not be!
2. Cut out vinyl lettering the size and font you want to use. Pull out the letters and use the negative vinyl as a stencil! I applied the stencil with transfer tape as it was much easier than trying to apply it without it.
3. Press down firmly on the vinyl to make sure all edges are secure.
4. Paint a coat of Mod Podge over the vinyl and onto the cut out part of the letter. Be very careful not to coat over the sides at all, as you will be dumping glitter onto this and you don’t want to glitter on the sides.

5. Pour glitter on top of your block and press down into the Mod Podge. Let dry!
6. Once dry, carefully lift up your stencil and the glittered letter should be there!
7. Use the Stickles around the edge of each letter to add dimension.
8. Coat the front of the blocks with a matte clear coat to secure the glitter.
9. Punch out a few tarantula shapes, Use the black Stickles on their legs and backs and sprinkle some black dry fine glitter onto them. Use the red Stickles on the fangs. Let dry.
