A six armed snowflake with a face in the middle and small circles floating around it. Cut out and hung on a thread it turns into a decoration, and cut out in a stack of six it turns into a garland, which is more than most sheets manage. Pale blues and silvers if you want winter, anything at all if you do not. The christmas angel is the long one.
