Spring into Christmas 2024

 

Welcome to Build Your Stash Spring into Christmas Linky Party! Let the creativity of the next eight days inspire your creativity and get you in the mood for some holiday cards. This is the time of year where Christmas is the furthest from our mind. In our house we are swapping out our winter clothes for spring and summer items and talking of turning down the heat. These are the days when you need the heat on to chase the chill from the air, but don't need it by the time lunch comes around. Crocus and daffodils are blooming in every year.  Robins are nesting and many animals are coming out of hibernation. 

I am so excited for this linky party as it gave me a good excuse to bring out some of the new goodies I likely purchased on a Black Friday sale or with Christmas money... and this Santa was one of them! While I will admit at first glance the number of pieces was very intimidating. Don't let that spoil your fun! On the back of each die you will also see a color that will guide you on what color is suggested for the die cutting. You can obviously mix it up a little, but once I realized that I was off to the races and Santa was done shortly after that. This card was my first attempt and will certainly not be my last... I am in LOVE with this Tim Holtz Santa die will be making several more.
