Falling for the Holidays 2024 {BYSHC} Linky Party - Magic & Wonder

 Tried something new today! Falling for the Holidays 2024 {BYSHC} Linky Party always gets me out of my comfort zone!

I watched a YouTube video this morning from Come Crafting with Natasha. Her videos just started popping up in my feed a few months ago and she is the cutest! She is from New Zealand and just listening to her talk is worth the time! The video is #1090, and it gives inspiration about using all the tiny/small stamps that come in a kit that you may not know what to do with!

I chose the 5 cute hats from the Unity Stamp Co. Kit of the Month from November 2023  called {festive flair}. Stamped with VersaFine Clair in Nocturne then embossed with clear embossing powder. Colored in various colors with King Art Alcohol Markers and then fussy cut. I die cut a plain white panel with the scallops and rectangle nesting dies from Unity. The smaller one I used some pink tape from Therm-o-web and ink blended over it with lucky clover and twisted citron. After removing the tape, I picked out a cute sentiment (from KOM from September 2024 {wander & wonder})! I used some foam tape to pop up the center rectangle. The hats were arranged (took forever to get it right) and glued down, then the center one popped up! I then added some green enamel dots from Gina Marie Designs and viola!

I absolutely *LOVE* this!!!! Thanks Natasha for this amazing technique! I will never take the tiny and small stamps for granted again!
