Candy Cane Mistletoe

 stamp: House Mouse Design 'Mistletoe Kiss RSC-017',

Snowdrop Flower

 

stamp: Clearly Besotted 'Snowdrop', dies-hugs, label frame die, Frantic Stamper-Stitched Rounded Rectangles die

snippet of leftover watercoloured paper

I have some leftover watercolour paper which I used to diecut poinsettia flower, die-cut it with stitched rounded rectangle die. Stamped the flower and die-cut with the coordinating die, coloured with watercolour, I snipped out some of the blank area from the die-cut image. The sentiment 'hugs' was die-cut with yellow and green cardstock, layered them in such a position to reflect a shadow.
