Mittens...

"Pam here... do you knit?  I don't but two of our daughters do. They make beautiful creations. I was delighted to see this new Zig Zag knit die in the new Poppystamps release. I could hardly wait to use it with the Memory Box Toasty Mitten die!  Brrrrrrr Mittens are right up there with snowmen on my favorites for Winter list!

••• Be sure to click over to the Poppystamps blog for daily posts showing the new collection!  Chances to win every day too! Just leave a comment on each blog post over there.  Hope you win! •••

I used the bow from the largest Memory Box Precious Snowflakes die. There's that gorgeous MB Frostyville border die, MB Lagoon, Key Lime notecards and Key Lime gingham card-stock.

A few other new Poppystamps dies...Garden Sprig, Small Garden Sprig and Berry Sprig.

This is a 5 1/2 inch square card.  I embellished a little with 3mm and 5mm white glitter domes.

Thanks for the visit today!  Remember to click over and visit the gals @ Poppystamps too!  

TFL!"

A Retake on Christmas in the City

"So I decided to take the terrific advice I got from my blog readers and the readers here who commented on my original Christmas in the City card, and I like the new version very much!

I ended up not only taking your advice, readers, I also switched out my sentiment and added a whole new stamp in the background. And then I decided to remake the stamped panel, too.

So here's the original....

Card features Memory Box stamps Christmas In the City and Birds on a Lamp Post.

And here's the remake:

Featuring Memory Box stamps Snow Place Like Home, Snow Fall, and Birds on a Lamp Post

So what do you think?

I added the new Snow Fall stamp in the background (stamped with Memento's London Fog  to make it fade into the background) and switched to the Snowplace Like Home sentiment stamp because it fit in the panel.

I "drew" a wreath on the lamp post by randomly pouncing the brush end of a green Memento marker in a circle. The berries are Red stickles.

S U P P L I E S

Memory Box cardstock and Snow Place Like Home, Snow Fall and Birds on a Lamp Post stamps; Memento Bamboo Green brush marker and London Fog dye ink; Ranger Distress inks (Milled Lavendar, Weathered Wood, Scattered Straw, Chipped Sapphire); Yellow and Red Stickles

Don't forget to check out Jean's card from earlier today!

Thanks for stopping and have a blessed day!"
