Hello, everyone! Happy Friday to you! I hope you all had a fantastic Christmas! Mine was truly wonderful. We spent Christmas Eve with Chris's family. Yesterday we stayed home all day! My parents and grandma came over in the morning for breakfast and gift exchanges, and the rest of the day was spent just relaxing and being together. It couldn't have been better! :)
Today's it's back to business -- but it's all fun! At All That Scraps we're doing a review of the recently released Gingersnaps sets, Snowbunnies and Angels Everywhere. They are available in rubber and as digi downloads! For both cards, I used the Garland collection of papers by Scenic Route. I am in *love* with the colors and patterns -- they're not just for Christmas!
On the first card, I started paper piecing and couldn't stop!! I pieced the jacket, scarf and hat with the paper, and I pieced the boots and hearts with SU! Riding Hood Red cardstock. I did lots of machine stitching on the paper panels. I used Liquid Applique on the pom poms and boot cuffs, and I heated it to make it puffy.
On the second card, I paper pieced her dress, pierced the scallops, and sponged around the image circle.
Stop by the ATS Blog today to see what the rest of the Design Team did with these adorable images!
For all of you after-Christmas shoppers out there, Christine is having a sale on all C.C. Designs images! They are 15% off through Sunday, December 28! If you've had any on your wish list, now is the time to get 'em! :)
That's all I have for today! Thank you so much for visiting -- I'm so glad you stopped by! Have a fantastic day! :)
