Creative Clear Stamps Blog Hop!!!

I am so excited for the first ever Creative Clear Stamps Blog Hop. The new Holiday Stamps are so stinkin' cute and just perfect for the upcoming holidays... You can check them all out HERE and don't forget if you are signed up for the newsletter, there is a coupon code that is a MUST HAVE! When I saw it I was like, "ka-ching!" I am having a hard time picking an absolute favorite and need them all (hee~hee).

I had a hard time deciding which card to share so posted one here and one on the CCS Blog :o) Sound good?
I made this card using the stamp set Let It Snow. I am so loving the new Basic Grey designer paper and love the colors and patterns of Eskimo Kisses. (Isn't that a cute name too!) I stamped the tree twice and paper pieced the one I stamped onto green cardstock and added some Polar White Flower Soft to create SNOW!!!! I used my Snowflake CB folder on the Certainly Celery layer and the colors just pop together :o) I do believe I have found one of my Christmas card designs for this year! A little non-traditional in the choice of colors, but I like it!  Here is the inside:

The top part ended up being a little crooked, but I fixed it after the picture and forgot to go back and take another one...Oops!
You can win a CCS stamp set of your own if you sign up to be a Follower on the CCS Blog (if you aren't already) and finally don't forget to check in on these Design Team Members and leave a comment for even more chances to win the blog candy:

Cute holiday card and I like the use of different colors besides the usual red and green!

That tree card is great! Is that Flower Soft on it? I haven't used that yet, but I think I'll be picking some up real soon to make some cards like this...I just LOVE it! Fabulous job on it! PS- I like your other card on the CCS blog as well :)

The snow is perfect once again! I think we are on the same wavelength...I am laughing right now because I debated about getting the snowflake embossing folder...I think I am going to have to run back to the store. Plus, I just picked up the Basic Grey paper (I think I am going to use it for my Christmas cards) :>) Let me know what you are getting next so I know how to plan my budget!
