IAR "New Beginnings" Blog Hop

 


Welcome everyone to the I Am Roses "New Beginnings" Blog Hop! Hope you are all enjoying the creations the Design Team has crafted for this Blog Hop. There are three prizes up for grabs. 

Here is my project for you today.


This is a wooden slice ornament that I altered with I Am Roses Flowers and other embellishments. All flowers used will be listed below. 


I used a snowman paper die cut as the centerpiece and pulled the color palette from there. A variety of flowers in different sizes adorn this ornament. I added a cute flair button and a mini gold star, along with a silver leaf branch to the left of the snowman.


Thank you for stopping by. Here is the list of the Blog Hop Line-up:

Next, we introduced 6 cute penguins enjoying a SNOW DAY on the slopes. Lastly, we have ANYA IN ITALY visiting the Colosseum on her scooter.


Here's my card and I'm bringing back these cuties from Snow Day. I had leftover images from my previous project and wanted to make this fun card with these playful penguins. This snow day scene was easy to create.

All images are colored with Copic Markers and fussy cut out. I used a stitched hillside border die to create these snow sloped hills. The mini snowball images I used were pulled from the Holiday Anya 11 Stamp Set.
