Most Wonderful Time

Hi y'all! Today I am so excited to share with you, not one, but TWO cards for the two stamp sets we are previewing today from TCM! First up, a card that features a beautiful stamp set designed by Nina B.
Vintage Snowflakes....


I love, love, LOVE this stamp set so much!!!! I could have stamped snowflakes for days!
The sentiments in the set are also just beautiful....The way they almost resemble beautiful ironwork...Truly vintage and so special!


You'll get tired of my color palette pretty soon, I'm sure...But I wanted to stick with the same colors so that it could make my card creating quick and easy and so that it would all coordinate with my gift wrap this year! (Will be sure to share at a later date)


I've added all the color to the card using distress inks. Aside from the kraft paper, the rest of the paper on this card (and the next one) started out completely white.
After some distressing and stamping...It looks perfectly vintage!


I added in some baker's twine, Tim Holtz tissue tape, and a glittered snowflake and some white Prima rhinestones to finish off this card... 


Next up, a card featuring another set designed by Nina B...And perhaps my favorite of this release...
Vintage Ornaments...


Oh, how I LOVE this stamp set!!!! Words do not even begin to describe how beautiful the ornaments are!
I can't wait until November 1st to show you the full stamp set images! They are truly gorgeous! Not to mention that all of the greetings fit perfectly inside the lil ornaments! How awesome is that?!


Here's a close up of the little bow/rose/distressed jingle bell :)


And a close up of the beautiful ornament, which I have layered with a Melissa Frances chipboard snowflake. Just under the pretty Maya Road trim, I have cut portions of the same image to create a scalloped border! Love!


And lastly, a quick glance at the paper which started out white and now has a beautiful, aged appearance thanks to my distress inks! Hope you've enjoyed the previews for this month's release!

That's it from me, until our blog hop on November 1st!
Join me back here, where I will reveal my last project with these beautiful stamps, and be sure to leave a comment for your chance to win these incredibly beautiful sets!!!

Much luv.

  7. How pretty. And while I don't particularly like snow, we had several inches this weekend and its about 60 degrees inside today so it certainly seems appropriate for me.
