Create a sketch on the front plane. Use the line tool AND construction tool at the same time to make 2 lines. (Doesn't matter how long) Use the line tool again and draw a line going the same way as the vertical construction line, (Dimension should be 3.615 inches; use dimension tool) and then draw another line on the left side from the line that's in the origin - (Dimension should be 1.455 inches)

For the remaining part, use the 3 point arc tool to connect it with the radius of 2.1, make it the same length as the line connected to the origin, and then use the line tool to connect both. Then use the dimension tool to even out the lines, connect the origin line and the line just across from it (Dimension should be 0.81) Use the line tool to put between the 2 vertical lines. Then click the done button to complete the sketch.

Use the revolve tool to make the trophy round, click the sketch made and click the vertical construction line. Then click the done button. Now use the shell tool to give the trophy look, the shell thickness should be 0.2 inches. Click done! Start a new sketch on the front plane and use the corner rectangle, and make its dimension (Height) to 1.25 inches and the width to 4.075 inches.

After creating the corner rectangle, use the extrude tool and make the depth 2.5 inches and symmetrical.

Start a new sketch on the face of the extrude. Use the text box to write anything that supports the idea of the design (1st Place, #1, etc). Use the dimension tool to edit the size of the text, it should be 0.6 inches. Use the extrude tool to size out the typing, click only the text (Make sure it's on the add tab and not the new), the depth should be 0.1 inches.

Use the Plane tool, the entities should be the top plane, offset, and the distance should be 3.60-3.70 inches (Depending on what design your making the snowflake, but I chose 3.64 because it works best for my design). Then, start a new sketch on Plane 1, and use the center point circle tool that has a radius of 5.5 inches. Make three lines connecting to the origin and make them 30 degrees each with the dimension tool. Use a tool called the Circular Pattern tool and make it 6 circles. Now make any design of your choice as the snowflake and use the mirror tool if needed. After designing, use the extrude tool and new to make the snowflake, the depth should be 0.125 inches.
