ICS Blog Hop Introducing the Holiday Catalog

Happy Wednesday Evening!! I am hopping tonight with some of my favorite Stampin' Up! Friends and we are going to Inspire, Create, and Share from the NEW Holiday Catalog!! Have you had a chance to look at it?? If not, you are sure missing out!!! Did you not just love Megan's creations? 

I couldn't wait to use my Sparkly Seasons Bundle.... I'll give you the details!

This card started with a standard A2 Base in Old Olive CS. Next was a quick layer of Cherry Cobbler CS. I then used the polka dot pattern DSP from the Merry Moments DSP pack. This paper is also available in a stack in the new Holiday Catalog.  I stamped the snow man using our new Basic Black Archival ink and used Mossy Meadow, Real Red, Cherry Cobbler and Pumpkin Pie Stampin' Write Markers to color him. I then used the "Snow" stamp with Smoky Slate ink so you could visualize the snow. Now in the Sparkly seasons bundle you are going to find a circle framelit. This is the die I used to cut out the snowman circle.  I embellished the snow falling and the hill with some dazzling details for some sparkle! Then I layered this on to an Old Olive CS circle using our Circle Framelits. I had some Glimmer Paper scraps and made a quick little boarder using the Red and Dazzling Diamonds to do this. I also used the Red Glimmer paper for the sentiment "Snow" on the top left which is also from the Sparkly Seasons bundle.  I really thought I was done, but felt like it needed a little bit more. The wooden snowflakes were just the ticket...

I really hope you love my creation! I can't wait for you to see what Nichole has next!! Have a great evening!
