New goodies & MIM selective inking in a sea of blue

I picked up my December release goodies at the post office after work, so I had to play with them quick before bed (hence the patterned paper)!


I used selective inking for the sentiments (didn't ink up the period at the end) as in one of the Make it mondays challenges.  I angled the stamp on the block and then smooshed it a bit when making the impression, so it's not perfect. 

I used the In the meadow snow drift die for the sentiment, and after finding this amazing button I had to use it.  I snipped some saddle stitch ribbon to make leaves.

Supplies; Stamps - Mat stack collection 1 (sentiment), Paper - Aqua mist, Hawaiian shores, Memory box PP Jubilee, white, Other - In the meadow die, Filigree border die, Pure poppy button, Spring moss saddle stitch ribbon.
