~ I {Heart} Paper ~
November 22nd, 2009 by Holly McMillen
Good day, Friends!
It’s no secret. I LOVE paper. You can bend it, fold it, cut it… do just about anything your mind can imagine. I love that is comes in a rainbow of colors and every prismatic shade in between. I LOVE LOVE LOVE paper!!
I woke up this morning, itching to stamp. I had this idea brewing in my head for awhile and decided that today was the day to tackle it. It’s a snowman tower!
The bottom box is 3″ square x 2 1/2″ high. The second box is 2 1/2″ square and 2 1/2″ high. The top box is 1 1/2″ square and 1 1/2″ high.
Each box contains a different surprise! The bottom box hold 4 mini cards. The middle box contains 4 snowflake tags and the top box holds some yummy M&Ms.
Here are my deets:
Stamps: There She Goes‘ Penguin Love (heart and sentiment on cards); There She Goes‘ Stick Together (snowflakes on box and on tags)
Colors: GP White, Bashful Blue, Only Orange, Basic Black
Ink: Versafine Black Onyx, Bashful Blue
Accessories: 1/2 pearls (red and baby blue); snowflake punches, snowflake embossing folder, sticky tape, dimensionals, circle punches, stickles (frosted lace), hole punch ~ large (for eyes and buttons);

Please note: Due to the overwhelming requests for a tutorial, I WILL be posting step by step instructions with pictures on Wednesday the 25th. Please stop back by if you are interested!
Thanks for stopping by! I hope you have a blessed day 🙂
