Happy Holidays Challenge and Guest Designing With Paper Sweeties!!!

I have 3 DT posts today!
You can find my "The Shabby Tea Room" post HERE
and
my Crafty Secrets post HERE 
Now on to my Paper Sweeties post!

Good Monday Morning to you!!
I am "Guest Designing" today at 
with a start of a new monthly challenge for December!

The challenge is "Happy Holidays" and using the inspiration photo below!


If you have seen my post for "The Shabby Tea Room"
then you have seen my bigger stocking gift box I made.
I loved how easy the box was to make, 
that I decided to make smaller version for a tiny gift I need to wrap!


I used a cut file from "The Cutting Cafe" called "Stocking Box Set".
I also a used the cutest new (and favorite) stamp from "Paper Sweeties" called
"Holly Days" for the snowman and the sentiment from "Homemade With Love"
Both of these new sets have matching dies which I used for the snowman.
How great is that, a stamp set and dies, all in a bundle at a discount price.
You can find the Holly Days Bundle here and

I stamped my snowman with Ranger Archival Ink
then heat set with clear Embossing Powder before I colored him.
I added a bow with a mini TH Rosette I made underneath and a
jingle bell tied to the bow.
I also added a bit of "faux" stitching to the toe and heel.
The snowman has a tiny button on his scarf
and a bit of bling to his snowflake!!

Thanks for looking and for all the nice comments!!
