The 52 Christmas Card Throwdown Challenge theme for July is "pinecones". It reminded me of a beautiful layered pinecone by Honey Bee Stamps that I had in my not-yet-used stash!
Pinecones and forests and snow all make me feel peaceful so I was thrilled to find the large Joy die in my Honey Bee Stamps stash that also included the stamp "and peace". To tie it all together, I cut some snowflakes from glittery white paper.
As I type this, I can hear my family starting to get up. We are heading out early today to spend the day in the world of pinecones and forests - unfortunately with heat instead of beautiful, peaceful snow - but it's still going to be wonderful!
Thank you to 52 Christmas Card Throwdown for the inspiration.
