High Hopes Blog Hop....

 Good Morning Everyone and thanks for stopping by. Today we are holding a "One Crazy Stamper High Hopes Stamps Design Team blog hop to celebrate the launch of High Hopes new Christmas Stamps.  Above is my card using the stamp.....Making Friends. I embossed the background using the Swiss Dots embossing folder and then created my scene on top of it. I coloured up my image using copics.....then for a little something different I used white embroidery floss and stitched some blowing snow. The hat you see flying in the wind has been cut away from the stamp so it looks like it is blowing away. I also used the Martha Stewart snowflake border punch from One Crazy Stamper to use along the top edge and the side of my card.
 Now I thought I would add some adorable penguin cards with a little box to put them in. I wanted everything to match so I hand stitched all the little cards too with the white embroidery floss. Coloured all the images with copics.  I used Warm Wishes, Waddlin Fun, Frozen Fun and Just Chillin'!
