With such a fun and colourful colour palette I pulled the Snowy Wonder stamp set from my shelf. I love this sweet bundle and have truly enjoyed creating and using it for my projects this year. 

The card base and embossed Forever Plaid layer are Real Red card stock. The DSP layer is from the "A Little Bit Festive" Specialty DSP. The plaid embossed layer is just gorgeous and something that is part of the Reindeer days Suite Collection. It works with every other stamp set I have!

The globe and base are die cut in Basic White card stock. The globe coloured using Balmy Blue ink and a Blending Brush. The base was embossed using one of the 3D Basics Embossing Folder for texture. I stamped some snowflakes in Balmy Blue at the top of the globe. The globe was adhered to the top of the plaid layer with Dimensionals

I stamped each of the die cut elements before using the coordinating dies to die cut. The Snowman was stamped in Memento™Tuxedo Black ink and I have outlined the left hand side with the Light Lemon Lolly Stampin' Blend. The trees are both stamped in Shaded Spruce, the gift in Flirty Flamingo and the Candy cane in Real Red and coloured with a Real Red Stampin' Blend. All die cut pieces were adhered with Dimensionals.

The sentiment stamped in Real Red ink on Basic White card stock and die cut using a die from the Countryside Corners Dies. Adhered with Dimensional to the right hand side of the globe. I tied a length of White Bakers Twine in a double blow and glued it to the bottom left of the globe. I glued five of the White Loose Snowflakes onto the globe for my finishing touch.

Thanks for stopping by today. I hope you are enjoying the festive season and are finding ways to be creative this year.
