Step 1.1: Create the Snowflake Bottle Design
1: In order to be able to start our Design, we are going to access our Design
Space application and in there we are going to click on the + New Project Green button located on the top Right corner of our screen.
2: After we clicked in there, we are going to be able to access our Blank Canvas, in where we are going to start creating our Design:
3: We are going to use the Images functionality to search for snowflakes and we are going to add them to the canvas:
💡Tip: Since the size of the snowflakes are not going to be very big, we need to try to avoid the ones that have very fine lines or have a lot of detail on them.
4: We are also going to upload other snowflakes by using the upload functionality and we are going to follow the steps showing on our screen:
Download the snowflake svg here: https://craftyclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/snowflakes.svg
Now click Upload in the left hand menu and search for the Snowflake SVG which should be in your Downloads
After you clicked on upload, the snowflakes are going to be showing on your canvas:
5: From the snowflakes that we uploaded, we are going to use only the small one, so we are going to ungroup the images and we are going to delete the other snowflakes that we are not going to use.
💡Tip: You can use as many different snowflakes as you want.
After you ungroup them you should be able to see the following:
We are going to proceed and delete the snowflake that we are not going to use:
6: Now, you should have the following snowflakes images on your Canvas:
7: We are going to resize them using 3 different measurements as follow:
💡Tip: Remember that the measurements are just a guide, you can choose any size base on your physical bottle.
8: We are going to change the color of our snowflakes, this is for us to be able to cut the same kind of snowflake with the same color if we are planning to use more than one color. If you want to do it randomly, you can do that too.
We are going to select one of the snowflakes and we are going to click on the square color next to the drop down operation in order to change the color:
After you change the color, your image should look like:
9: You are going to repeat the same process with the rest of the snowflakes. After changing the color, you should have something like:
10: We are going to duplicate our snowflakes as many times as we want. In order to do it, we are going to select the snowflake and then we are going to click on the Duplicate functionality:
After you clicked on the Duplicate functionality all the times that you want/need you should have something like:
As a reference we have the following amount of snowflakes:
Purple: 7
Gray: 6
Light Blue: 6
12: We are ready to start cutting the snowflakes!
OPTIONAL: We are going to create 2 more designs, if you want to skip them and start cutting this design, you can go to STEP 2: Cut the Design .
