Avery Elle More Stories: All is Calm

Avery Elle recently released a charming set of little animals called More Stories - it's the second set to Storybook.  I ordered immediately, not only because they are totally cute, but also because I envisioned them sitting in front of the trees from the Let It Snow.  More Stories comes with a variety of scene builders - kites for the spring, grass and flowers for the summer, falling leaves for autumn and snowflakes for winter - so it is perfect for all times of the year.  The four animals in the set have such sweet and gentle expressions; I think they are perfect for this calm scene.

All is Calm

I'm linking this up to the current clean and simple challenge at Avery Elle...keeping in mind that there's not a lot of white space but there is open space.


  • Stamps: Avery Elle Let It Snow, More Stories
  • Paper: Simon Says Soft Navy
  • Ink: Simon Says Soft Navy, Versamark
  • Accessories: Avery Elle More Stories dies, Memory Box star die, Heat 'n Stick Powder and Martha Stewart Fine Crystal glitter (it's hard to see but the star is glittery), Pretty Pink Posh 4mm Sparkling Clear sequins, Hero Arts white embossing powder
