Winter Wishes

Well this was fun.  I had some pretty Christmas paper that has been calling to me for a few days, and I’ve had a hankering (where the heck did that word come from) to use Kraft for Christmas too, and so this was the result.  I stamped the snowman from Gina K Stamps Snowman Wishes and the sentiment included plus the little snowflakes from Theresa Momber’s The Giving Tree with VersaMark and sprinkled with embossing powder from Sparkle and Sprinkle called Guilded Ivory.  Not sure why I haven’t used that before because it is really pretty in person.  My photo doesn’t do the sparkle justice.  Anyway after I finished the embossing, I shaded the image with Memento Love Letter and boy did that pop the white snowman.  To also bring out some of the green in the patterned paper I edged the focal image with Memento Olive Grove, added a die cut border from Memory Box called Frosty Border and there you have it.

  2. So pretty, and you didn't used Christmas colors. That is great Christmas paper and love what you did with the die on the bottom. He is a cute snowman, but he really needed those snowflakes. Great job!
