Hoppers: Wasn't Kelly's Holiday project inspiring?
Here's my Pretty Packaging creation....


I had this Gable Box - Tall cut from Bronze Stardream Metallic cardstock.

You gotta love this CTMH ornament stamp.
I think the buttons are a playful touch.



First I covered the bottom of the gable box with some Basic Grey papers, SU! ribbon and a punched snowflake from my stash. I sponged blue ink on to the snowflake then doodled on it with a white gel pen and added a simple adhesive pearl. Then I stamped and embossed the rest of the box. I love how the white snowflakes turn out!



If this is the first you've seen of this Moose, go HERE.

Now off you go....  be   i n s p i r e d
and be sure to take advantage of the 15% discount
good through November 4th at Creative Cuts & More....
the special CODE is at the END of the HOP!!


Thanks for stopping by!
