MCT 29th Release Blog Hop!

Happy Friday!!

Welcome to My Creative Time's 29th Release Blog Hop!!

I'm so glad you could join us today!

You should have arrived here from the very talented Miss Jessica of Chick-n-Scrap.

If you just happened to stumble across the hop today on my blog and would like to start at the beginning, be sure to head over to My Creative Time and see Miss Emma!

Today I would like to show you a little gift set that features one of the new dies:

Winter Flake

My daughter is fixing to head back to college after winter break and I thought I would make her this little gift to take back with her. She loves coffee and white chocolate covered pretzels!

For my gift card holder, I used the Embossed Gift Card Holder and paired it up with some fun patterned paper. To decorate the front of the Embossed Gift Card Holder, I simply used the  *New* Winter Flake Die to add some gorgeous snowflakes to the front. I added some glitter to each snowflake and adhered them to my patterned paper. I let some of them hang off of the patterned paper a bit and then just trimmed them with my scissors before attaching it to the front of my gift card holder.  That sweet little sentiment came from the *New* You're So Cool Stamp Set.

For my paint can, I simply wrapped some patterned paper around the bottom. I then wrapped some white tulle around the top and tied it into a bow.

For the top of my lid, I used the Scallop & Stitched Circle Die and then used one of the small flakes from the *New* Winter Flake Die Set.

I think it came out so pretty and she loved it!
