Hello friends! Today we're celebrating the upcoming holidays with a holiday blog hop from The Craft's Meow! If you're here from Jean's blog, you're in the right spot. If not, head over to the TCM blog to get started!
I chose to use Christmas Cheer which was one of the sets released in October and I just adore the whimsical imagery of this set! I started off with a little paper bag (like the ones you get scones in from a bakery or coffee shop) and stamped the snowflake in white craft ink. I then tore some white glitter cardstock to make a snowy bluff for the little snowman and trees to sit. When I cut out the snowman and trees, I covered them with Glossy Accents and then covered them with chunky glitter. I just love how that looks! I finished the snowman with some red Stickles and added some pewter sequins to the bag for some added sparkle (not like it really needed it, I just love sequins!) :) I folded the top of the bag over and punched some holes in the top to thread some white satin ribbon to close the bag. I really like how this turned out and will be entering it into the Moxie Fab Stitching and Sewing Challenge, too!
