Lawnscaping Blog Hop

Welcome to my first ever Lawnscaping Blog Hop! 
I am so very thrilled that you are here!  You should have come to me by way of Ruza Rebel

This theme is all about RED!!!  
The hop runs from Friday, December 9th - Sunday, December 11th! 
Make sure to comment on all of the blogs because there are LOTS of prizes to be won! 
All the details can be found on the Lawnscaping home page

The hop is being sponsored by some amazing companies:

I love red christmas and I thought it would be fun to make the tree from the Critters in the Forest look more christmassy by stamping some musical notes from the Pa rum Pa Pum Pum set. Both were white embossed and colored with distress ink & an ink applicator tool. 



The white panel was stamped using 4 different christmas/winter sayings from various Lawn Fawn sets.  I used small snowflakes to create a background.

 Supplies:
 Stamps: Lawn Fawn Critters in the Forest, Pa rum Pa pum pum, Critters in the snow, Bows & Holly.
Paper: Bazzill
Inks: Ranger distress inks (fired brick, walnut stain), Colorbox Frost White pigment ink.


Thank you so much for hopping along ;)

Next head on to the blog of the ever so talented Vera Yates.

If you've gotten off track, don't worry! Head on back to Lawnscaping to see the complete list of designers and prize information!
