Ingredients

Instructions

  • Cover your working surface with craft paper to protect it.
  • Take a solo cup and trace the mouth of the cup on the back of the piece of blue glitter card stock. Trace and cut a 4-inch triangle out of the black cardstock for the globe's base. Glue the base to the back of the globe.
  • Next, take a piece of white construction paper and trace a wavy line about 1 ½ inch from the bottom of the paper. This will be the snow on the ground inside the globe. Cut along the wavy line and glue the snow to the bottom ⅓ of the globe. Press to secure and cut off the excess white construction paper.
  • Now it’s time to make the Christmas tree! With a pencil, draw a 3-inch tree on green construction paper. Cut out the tree and glue it to the middle of the globe overlapping the snow. Draw a small star on the back of the gold glitter card stock. Cut out the star and affix it to the top of the tree with glue.
  • Next, let’s make some lights for the tree! With a black pen, draw a few scallops on the tree to imitate the wires for the lights. Then, with a hole punch, make several circles out of the different colors of glitter card stock for the light bulbs. Glue the “light bulbs” to the wires in a sporadic design. Be creative!
  • Finally, let’s add some snowflakes to our globe! With a hole punch, make several circles and then glue them to the blue glitter card stock to make the snowglobe effect.

Notes

  • If you can't find glitter cardstock, grab a sheet of regular cardstock and cut out your base circle. Apply a thin layer of glue, and then sprinkle glitter on it and allow it to dry. Shake off the excess and then keep working!
  • Punch a hole in the top and add a piece of ribbon to create a Christmas ornament!
  • Add a magnet to the back and display your masterpiece on the refrigerator.
