Stamp-A-Stack Card #1 Snowburst One Sheet Wonder

We are doing this card at my Holiday Stamp-A-Stack events this year. This is a project that you can complete as a One-Sheet Wonder or on as a single card. If you are using the One-Sheet-Wonder, Stamp the pattern on the Whisper White full 8 1/2 x 11 sheet and then Cut the 2 1/2 x 5 1/2 strips. This will make it go a lot faster AND you will get enough strips for 8 Cards and some scraps you could use for other projects!And for a little more glitz, you ca use a rhinestone brad in the center. If you don't own the Snowburst set, you can substitute any circle design stamp set, such as Seeing Spots or Polka Dots and Petals! The directions below are for doing a single card at at time because, we were only make 5 cards of this design at the stamp-a-stacks and I know people like to do their own stamping.
