Winter Wonderland Blog Hop

Hi Everyone,
Welcome to the Sparkle N Sprinkle Winter Wonderland Blog Hop.If you got here from Dawn's blog then you are in the right spot. If not, you might want to start at the Sparkle N Sprinkle blog so you don't miss anything.

I have 2 projects for you and the first one uses stamps from Set 414, Winter Swirl. This set is definitely one of my favorites!!

I used the pine forest and stamped it multiple times to give the scene dimension. Also using lighter and darker embossing powder colors helped with the dimension as well.After I fussy cut the forest images I attached the images to each other and then added the images to the embossed panel on the card front.This set really is perfect for a winter wonderland theme.

Directions for this card can be found here.

Next I thought I'd use stamps in set 385, Merry Crows. Slim the snowman, is another of my favorites. This set has a great array of  images.There are so many great images included in this set, check them all out below. 

Along with Slim, I thought I'd include that cute bird and I placed it onto the pine branch I have added to the card. I used a lattice border punch in brown cs and then added die cut elements that include pine branches, a pine cone, and some holly leaves. These elements add great interest to "Slim".And of course snowmen really remind me of a winter wonderland.

Directions for this card can be found here.
