ICS Blog Hop Knotty Ways

Hooray!  It's the 1st Wednesday of the month and you know what that means right? Inspire, Create, and Share Blog Hop! Our theme this month is Knotty Ways showcasing beautiful ribbons with a Christmas theme.

The "Oh, What Fun" stamp set is quite fun.  I layered the ribbons to wrap the "Be Merry" Designer Series Paper as a gift and tagged it from Santa himself.

I love embossing folders and this Holly version has stunning, sharp details that add so much textural interest. 

Layering the Stitched Shapes framelits with the Layering Circles framelits creates all sorts of new options for coordination and dimension.
