SPD Sweet Peek - 12 Days of Christmas

Click HERE for my Reverse Confetti Countdown to Confetti post.

Welcome to Day 4 of Sweet Peek Week with SugarPea Designs! There is so much to love about today's featured stamps and dies, so be sure to stop by all of the SugarPea Pod blogs (AKA the design team, lol) to see all of the sweet creativity using them. And, while you're there, leave a little love for your chance to win the 12 Days of Christmas stamp set! 

I'm also playing along with this week's Freshly Made Sketches #211.

I've used Everyday is Christmas, the coordinating set to 12 Days of Christmas, for a non-holiday card. You can see just how far and wide you'll be able to stretch this stamp set, especially when you add its companion set, Feeling Sentimental,to your cart as well!

I water colored my 'turtle dove' image first and then used a few of the same Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens to create a water colored background. Then I heat embossed the sentiment from Feeling Sentiment on a black flag and assembled the whole scene along with a bit of washi tape and wood veneer stars from my stash. I'm always so inspired by my friend Kay Miller's watercolored backgrounds and tried to emulate her beautiful work (thanks, Kay!).

Thank you for stopping by today and all this week! I love hearing your thoughts and appreciate the time you take to leave them. Remember to comment today to win 12 Days of Christmas!

All winners during our Holiday Product Release will be announced on Sunday, November 9th.
