Make It Monday #231

Today, I have a few projects to share for

The first one is a card that I made using my Holiday Folk MIM kit:


I started by stamping the large tree four times in simply chartreuse.
Then, I added the other elements in soft stone, ripe avocado, pure poppy and ocean tides.


I finished by adding a diecut polar bear from the kit and 
the stamped sentiment in ocean tides.

I also used the technique to make some treat bag tags for my Sunday School girls.


For these, I used the Wee Folk stamps and dies.
When I hand them out, I'm going to say: "Because you're such a deer!" ;)

I wrapped up a piece of butter crunch for each one. 

I'm linking this up to
Thanks for looking!

Absolutely perfect! Very clever to stamp your own focal point in the center rather than one large image! Creative. Treat bags? Adorable!

I absolutely adore your card - it has a feel of Scandinavia about it but with beautiful soft colours. At the same time I love how it's so full of things. A lovely idea for the gift bags too! xx

You and this motif technique are made for one another. Talk about a stunning card, made all the more impressive that it was the debut of your new set! The polar bear is *the* perfect special touch! WOW! The treat bag tags are charming; love the soft palette for the wee deer and butterflies!
