Another Sneaky Peek!

Hi all and welcome to day three of Flourishes ever-so-festive sneak peek week -- one full of Christmas joy and wonder!  Today offers a look at one of the season's favorites. Don't we all have memories of shaking up this little beauty below and watch the sparkly snow fly?

Introducing....

This new set, Joy Is In The Air, penned by Marcella Hawley is the perfect winter and Christmastime scene setter. It's full of whimsy and you have got to love Marcella's take on these images! They are so sweetly drawn, not to mention, each of the vignettes set perfectly into the classic snow globe for mix and match, creative fun! This 4 by 6" set offers four main images and one beautifully scripted sentiment to match.

On to my creation!

I just loved Marcella's version of Santa, right there up on the rooftop! I stamped him in the snowglobe with Tuxedo Black Memento on Flourishes Classic White and then colored up the image with bunches of Copic markers! Here's a peek at the Copic Collections that I used...







And here's a peek... you can see how all those colors worked into this image. I added some sparkle with the help of some glitter glue. Add some gold stitching, some green seam binding and of course, the sentiment from the set adorned with a fun little red rhinestone! The paper is a mix of BasicGrey and Webster's Pages. 


And that, my friends, is it! Want to win this set? Be sure to hop on over to the blogs below. Why? Because it is one big guessing game and you need to figure out….
