My sweet friend Wendy is hosting the Merry Monday challenge today and I just had to play along! Here’s the fun challenge:
I pulled out an old faithful Christmas set called Peaceful Wishes and went to work. I fussy-cut the pine cone which was stamped in Cajun Craze and popped it up after glittering it up with some orange glitter. I also used some Heat & Stick powder to add orange glitter to a glimmer brad for my sentiment, which is from an older PTI set called Believe. It was cut out with a Word Bubbles die, with the “hanger” cut off:
This also incorporates the Try Stampin’ on Tuesday sketch:
as well as the Kraft Journal’s challenge to use ribbon or twine. Here’s mine:
Any questions, shoot me an email, gotta scoot!
Knitting needles and one of those big horns (Nance, I can’t remember what the name of it is!!!)…..the endless imagination of 4 year olds!
This is beautiful. I love your giant pine cones!
