Today is also the day that the newest Guest Designer Challenge will be announced. It is YOUR chance to wow the team with your mad talents, and earn the chance to play along in the following month's previews. Oh right, and WIN OVER a $100 in stamps! That's right, the winner earns the following month's release. Sweet! Be sure to check the Splitcoast Stampers Member Company Forum today to find all the details!

Enough of my chitter, chatter, are you ready to see a preview?


As a mom of boys I was THRILLED to see the newest Wyatt stamp Just Chillin. And we live in Boston, where it will snow quite often.... The boys love snow days, skiing and have already begun discussing their plans for a giant snow family, and a backyard igloo. (Secret confession: Would it be so wrong to admit that I'm super glad they're old enough to go build a snow family while I enjoy a cuppa coffee from the kitchen window?)


The boys are close enough in age that I've got to clearly identify what presents belong to whom at Christmas. So I thought an oversized gift tag would be not only a fun project, but also a pretty handy one! I'll have to make a second one - because with two boys, someone's feelings will be hurt if there is only one tag....

I used an Impression Obsession Shake it Pouch, and filled it with Glitzy Glitter for a fun interactive snow-globish tag. Patterned paper from Animal Crackers by My Mind's Eye. A felted snowflake thanks to the amazing Let It Snowflake Die-namic.

Be sure to check Kim's blog today after 11am for a full list of designers - you won't want to miss a bit of the eye candy with three new sets being unveiled today!

And, if you're wondering where I got this amazing tag shaped diecut it is from Jody's Diecuts. Fabulous! And I'm awfully glad I picked up a big assortment of them, this is SO fun!

A completely adorable stamp and your shaker tag is amazing. I'm convinced that scrapbooking is like fashion - wait long enough and it becomes fashionable again. And I have a confession to make - it doesn't snow much in Alabama but when it does, its me and my husband out making the snowman!
