Ok, I have fallen in love but don't tell my husband! Mr Twigster is the cutest little guy I have seen in a long time! This is the first of 3 cards I have made using Mr. Twigster for an upline's monthly challenge. The requirements were to use a stamp set from the Holiday mini catalog, any designer series paper and at least one punch.
I used the Kiwi kiss side of the Bella Rose dsp on the background and also with the oval punch. The other punches I used were the Designer label punch and the Word window punch. The sentiment comes from the Warm words stamp set that is on the dormant list but is stll available.
The main piece is cut from Whisper white & Riding hood red on the Big shot machine using the Top Notes Die. The edge of the whisper white was cut on the perforated line in order to layer it on the red.
Mr Twigster, the tree & presents were stamped with Black stazon and colored in with markers. Snowflakes were stamped very lightly in bashful blue and the edge of the Top Note was sponged with kiwi. The Kiwi Kiss/Very Vanilla satin ribbon were threaded through the double rectangle punched holes and tied into a bow. All supplies are from Stampin' Up!
I love this card! And I didn't even like the Twigster!! You have created a unique scene here that really stands out. Awesome.
I have also spent a few happy minutes looking through your wonderful blog. Great, unique projects - your customers are very lucky!

Ahhh! What a cutie! I LOVE snowmen! I didn't get a holiday mini, so I haven't seen this. He may have to go on my next order...
