November Friends of WMS Blog Waltz



It's November 15 and time for the WMS monthly blog waltz. To get us in the mood for the holidays (or maybe to give us a push to complete those holiday cards), the theme this month is Christmas.

Several years ago, one of my favorite paper companies, My Mind's Eye, had a Christmas paper collection that featured browns and blues. I've always liked that color combo and decided to use those non-traditional colors as my inspiration. Although I have several WMS Christmas sets, I seem to go back to Very Vintage Christmas over and over this year.





I pulled out my trusty Marvy snowflake punch to create my embellishment. And Tara, if you are reading this, I had to stand on it to get it to work. I actually thought I broke it but after a bit of time manipulating it, it's ok and ready for the next snowflake!

Hope you enjoy. Thanks for stopping by.

Supplies:
Stamps: Very Vintage Christmas, Seasons of Love, Off Beat Backgrounds
Cardstock: PTI Dark Chocolate, Vintage Cream, Spring Rain
Ink: PTI Dark Chocolate, Spring rain
Miscellaneous: SU Very Vanilla seam binding, Marvy snowflake punch, Hero Arts rhinestones, Nestabilities Pinked Circle die
