Die Versions + Great Impressions: A Blog Hop!



Welcome to the Die Versions + Great Impressions designers' blog hop! We've got both talented teams hopping today with a chance to win prizes from both of these craft suppliers! Our theme for this hop is "Tis the Season" so get ready to see some beautiful holiday creations! You should have arrived here from Anne Temple's blog. If you haven't and would like to hop with us, please go back to the Die Versions blog to see the entire hop list and to start at the beginning for the maximum chances to win!
My first card features the adorable  Jolly Snowman H215 from Great Impressions. I only used part of the stamp for this card. I paired him with Let It Snow Sweet Spots  from Die Versions.

For my next card, I absolutely love this Christmas scene H204S Sleigh Ride from Great Impressions. I colored the image with copics and colored the sky with a black Wink of Stella pen to create the night sky. I added the Snowflake corner from Die Versions.
