A couple weeks ago one of my violin students mentioned making snowflakes out of coffee filters. It sounded like such a great idea and I picked some up the next time I was at the store. I also found some really cute snowflake paper at Michael's. I also found cool, scratch-off snowflakes at Oriental Trading a couple weeks ago.
Although I don't live in a snowy area, I decided I would write a snow-themed letter. We do occasionally drive to the snow to hike, but I didn't include any photos in this letter.
So I had all the stuff, just not the time to crank out 18 letters. I was pleasantly suprised to open my Google reader one day and see Yvonne over at Our Little Corner of the World had the same idea (she even had the same paper)!
Yvonne has a step by step photo tutorial on how to make these....be sure to read her post.
