Mojo Monday...Winter Wishes

Lucky me, three of my favorite stamping sites have converging challenge requirements so I've decided to go for a three-fer! I'm following along for Mojo Monday's sketch, The Shabby Tea Room has a gorgeous inspiration photo and is requiring pink, gold, flowers & snowflakes and lastly, Splitcoast's Try a New Technique forum wants us to make a button-something. So here is my concoction based on these provisos:


I made the gold flower using Stampin' Up!'s 5 Petal punch and coating it with Champagne Stampin' glass glitter. The candy cane was made buttons and some jute twine. The snowflakes are buttons that I cut the loops off from the backs.
Have a wonderfully crafty day!


Stamps: Winter Mittens (Verve Stamps)
Paper: Lost & Found Madison Ave. collection (My Mind's Eye), Early Espresso, Kraft
