Dashing Through The Snow…
As I mentioned on Monday, this week is a busy one! Yesterday was the My Favorite Things release. Tomorrow is the The Cat’s Pajamas release and Monday is the Verve Stamps release…OH MY!…what is a girl to do. Needless to say, it’s been a little tricky managing space for all of my projects here, but I *think* that I have it figured out. Today I am featuring a gift set that I did for the upcoming Verve Stamps release.
Whenever I go into my alterables cabinet, I see my little clear paint cans and I usually just push them aside. When I saw the snowman looking up in the Snow Wonderful set, I knew that I had to put in on top of something…like a clear paint can. The band around the paint can is not DP…it’s stamped. In this set there is a long snowflake stamp that is perfect for bands and borders. This project uses one of the sentiments from Snowflake Splendor…so cute!
This gift set will soon be filled with homemade cookies and given to a friend. I think it would also be cute to fill with hot cocoa goodies. The possibilities of fillers is just about endless. In addition to this project, you can see many other sneak peeks on the Verve blog and on the blogs of the rest of the Design Team. We hope that you will join us in the Verve Forum on SCS on Sunday evening for a release party! There are daily sketch challenges happening over there this week with AWESOME prizes up for grabs, so be sure to check it out when you get a chance.

Like me, you have alterables that sit patiently waiting for your genius to transform them….in this case it will be YOUR genius that transforms MY alterables. What could be a better deal?? Am admiring EVERYTHING you have shown us this week…….

Cute. I love the snowflakes with the red and pink. Very creative. I never would have thought of that. I usually only do blue and white with snowflakes.
