For the FESTIVE challenge, I automatically thought of anything that sparkles or shines! Thus, I dug out my Heidi Swapp Color Shine sprays (again) and some clear gemstones.
This tag was first sponged with Cherry Cobbler ink (StampinUp!). Then, I used teal and white sprays to add a little shine. The deer (Mama Elephant - Winter Wonderland) were stamped and fussy cut before being popped up behind the snowy hills (a Mama Elephant Creative Cuts die). I stamped a trio of silver stars and embellished with three clear gemstones.
You'll want to visit the rest of the design team members' blogs as well as our guest designer's blog so you can leave them comments too! Each blog you comment on earns you more chances to win Tracey's prizes!
