Snowy Rhubarb Christmas



Hello and welcome to the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Release Day Blog Hop! This month we have are doing something really fun - the Design Divas and the Digi Team are hopping together, to celebrate the fabulous clear stamps, digis, and dies being released tonight!! Grab your favorite cuppa and maybe some of that yummy chocolate the kids collected this week ;) and get ready for some amazing eye candy! Don't forget to join us tonight at 8:00PM EST in our member company forums over on Splitcoast stampers - we have a great release party planned! There will be full reveals of all of the stamp sets, digis and dies, plus challenges AND prizes!!!

If you have been following along already you should have come from Mary Faus. If you are only starting here, please head back to the SNSS blog and go from there. You won't want to miss any stops along the way!

Here is what I created for the hop

PB028016

I used the new Rhubarb's Winter Fun set. I colored Rhubarb with copics and used stardust stickles for the snow. The super cute patterned paper is called Holly Jolly Christmas from Echo Park- love it! I sanded the edges of all the dp before matting and my layout is the Sweet Stop sketch for this week.

copic colors- E 23, 25, 27, 50, 51, 53; R 000, 0000, 35, 37, 39; G000

Here is a close up
