Winnie and Walter - December Leading Lady - 2nd post (and giveaway)!!

Hi everyone!! I'm very excited to be back again with another post on the Winnie and Walter blog as their Leading Lady for December!




The theme for this post is about backgrounds and how to create them yourself using die-cuts and stamping.



This is one of the cards you will see using a repeated stamping technique and my MISTI. I'd love to know what you think about this card and the others that I've shared.

Don't forget to leave me a comment on this blog post and my other Leading Lady blog posts for chance to win a $30 Winnie and Walter gift card. 





Thanks so much and see you all again next weekend with my 3rd Leading Lady post!!


Take care
Shona

  18. Shona, cheering loudly at your second spotlight feature! Your decision to inspire us with backgrounds is genious! Your repeated Noel is so pretty, the poinsettia and bright pairing, delightfully festive (I don't own a singe poinsettia image! Need to rememdy that!). Your whimsical trees...oh my stars! Heart captured! Once again, you've revealed incredible talents as a Leading Lady. Looking forward to more dazzles next week!
    Hugs~c

  32. Just beautiful!!! Love these bright and festive trees for your background. I have the mini-MISTI (which I love) so it would be harder for me to do your repeated stamping on the background with it. This is the first time I have seen how the full-sized MISTI could really come in handy, but I think I will content myself with my mini. :) Thanks for sharing your beautiful cards here and over at W&W, where I commented in more detail.
