Happy New Year! WOW---how strange is it to type 2020!!!!
I sure hope you had a wonderful holiday season. I know I did and I enjoyed our little crafty break.
But, now it is time to play with The Paper Players!
The lovely Jaydee is our hostess and she has a very fun theme challenge for all of us! Something NEW! So many possibilities-- a new home, baby, pet, year, etc! Have fun and get creative!
We also want to welcome our new guest designers for the year: Allisa Steinlicht, Mary Deatherage and
Stef Perry . We are thrilled they are joining us and look forward to all their fabulous creations!
My card is created for my son John. I am so excited for him because he just closed on his first home. I used the Honey Bee Stamps Threshold Dies to cut out the door. I used black and two shade of grey for the panels on the door. Silver foil was used for the mail slot and door handle. I also cut the wreath from the same dies. The snowman, rabbit and birds are from Honey Bee Stamps Snow Buddies stamps set. I used Copic Markers to color these items. The matching dies are used to cut out all the items. John lives in Indiana so, this winter scene is perfect for January!
