Hi there, hope you're having a good weekend.

Here is a video of me making it, and rambling about different things... enjoy!

{Let it snow!}

Got lots to share today!  Been playing with the Snow Place stamp set, made some cards and some tags, but they look very different from each other.  The stamps are photopolymer, so make it very easy to align to create lots of different looking snowmen and penguins.

Here are some tags using Basic Black, Basic Gray, Smokey Slate and Cherry Cobbler

and a quick video

Then these cards were stamped using Night of Navy, Lost Lagoon and Mint Macaron

and if you would like to here my Saturday Ramble while I stamp them, have a look at this video
