winter snow globe revisited...

Happy December!  Welcome to the Papertrey Ink Sr. Team Challenge.  This month we are revisiting the adorable Winter Snow Globe stamp set, designed by Heather Nichols...it's pretty irresistible :).

 

I created a background for my first card using the tree from this set.  I stamped in Summer Sunrise, Pale Peony, Sweet Blush, Mint Julep, and Aqua Mist.  I added a bit of color to the stars on each tree and a few of the ornaments by using my Copic markers and then Stickles Diamond Glitter.  I then added my focal point, which is the die cut and stamped snow globe, with a tree nestled inside, adhering it using dimensional adhesive so it will stand out from the background.

I added my sentiment at the bottom and embellished it with a candy cane and holly from the Christmas Critters stamp set.  They are stamped in Berry Sorbet, Mint Julep, and Simply Chartreuse.

Next I used the Essential Pillow Box die to create a special package, using the Winter Snow Globe stamp set on my tag.  

I created my tag using the Tag Sale #1 die.  My snow globe is stamped in Pale Peony ink with the snowflakes inside stamped with watermark ink and heat embossed using aqua embossing powder.  I then die cut and stamped my snowman, adding a bit of ink blending and glitter to add some character.

My sentiment is stamped in Limeade Ice ink and to finish I added Limeade Ice felt holly leaves cut using the Holly Jolly die.

This little set will most definitely get you in the Christmas crafting spirit!  Thanks for visiting.
