Happy Monday Stamping Friends!!
What a wonderful Monday it is!!


Welcome to the Die Versions and Great Impressions designers' blog hop!

Our theme for this hop is "Tis the Season" so get ready to see some beautiful holiday creations! 

You should have arrived here from Archana Joshi blog. If you haven't and would like to hop with us, please go back to the Die Versions blog to see the entire hop list and to start at the beginning for the maximum chances to win!

---------------------

I had so much fun creating this project!!!

For my main image, I used the adorable Snowman Fun (H188) stamp!
I just love snowman images!!
I thought it was the perfect image to use to add some of the die cut Wee Petites - Snow Flurries snowflakes too! 

What a fun pacakge!

Behind the image, I have some layers, which I stamped the Snowflake Swirl Background (J105) on the top and bottom of the patterned paper, I also then added a strip from the die cut Whispers - Bubbles Background!  

You can see the Whispers - Bubbles Background even more as you open the package:

A look at it completely opened up:
Perfect to add a little gift in!!

I love the Have Yourself (E512) sentiment, which is what I used for the inside of this gift box, along with using the Snowflake Cluster (A71) stamp to add snowflakes around the sentiment!

Fun part is I masked the Have Yourself (E512) sentiment, so that the "Merry" and "Christmas" didn't stamp! Gave me the chance to use the awesome Sweet Wordlets - Merry Christmas die!

 The die works perfectly with the sentiment!!  Love it!!

  9. What a great box for a gift card or something small. Wouldn't have thought of using polka dot paper, but it so works. I like how you used 2 different fonts for the Christmas sentiment on the second card.
