Papertrey Ink Blog Hop

It is time for another blog hop at Papertrey Ink!


Just look at this gorgeous inspiration photo they provided this time! I really had a hard time deciding which direction to go with this one.


 I didn't know if I wanted to do something fallish or winterish. I just started messing around with stamps and colors and I ended up with something more winterish. 



I first sponged a little bit of grey on the background so that my white snowflake would show up just a bit more. Then I stamped and die cut all the pieces and adhered them with foam tape. Everything is from Papertrey Ink.

Stamp sets used:
Bells and Boughs
Love Lives Here Holiday Stamp Set
Fancy Flakes die collection

Thanks so much for stopping by! I'll be back tomorrow with some Holiday goodness for Festive Friday! 

Hugs,

Kay :)
