Woo-hoo!!! I get to show you guys a few more of the images from the upcoming release for Claudia & Co. There will be a total of 6 images released this coming Friday, Nov. 5th.
Up today is another must have from Jane's Doodles. He comes complete with a hat and sentiment (which I didn't use :()
I picked up this wonderfully whimsical paper from Echo Park with my last order from Die Cuts R Us. It's called Everybody Loves Christmas and it's right up my ally with fantastic color combinations and prints. If you want a sampler, Claudia has one ready to go in the 6x6 sampler pack section of the store. I also used more of my red bakers twine. I hope you guys aren't sick of seeing it yet. The perfectly matched pearls were from my dear friend Tinla. Thanks girl!!!!!
I don't know which one is cuter, Puddle Jumper Landon or his little bear friend! I just love how his little head is tilted. It's like he took the time to turn around and pose just for this stamp! My card came to life all by itself once I selected the patterned paper. It's from a 12x12 paper pad I picked up last year at M's. It's from Me & My Big Ideas. The top of it had the row of winter trees, that I simply cut out and added to the middle of my card. I do like the green background. It's different than your traditional blue background with snow falling.
I added some polar white Flower Soft to the "ground" for effect. And I just had to pull out some favorite (and much neglected) supplies. Those included my MS icicle border punch, felt snowflakes from Stampin' Up! and a coveted Basic Grey Wassail brad. Ohhh it feels good to confess to using the old stuff! LOL!
Sooooo? Are you guys dying? Don't you want these cuties? Well not to worry. Friday will be here before you know it. AND there are still 2 more images to show you. I'll give you 2 hints. There will be a boy & girl to show you next AND you will want them too!
Need more eye candy? Head over to the Claudia & Co. blog to see what else the design team whipped up for today's sneak peek!
Thanks for stopping by!
