Your Next Stamp Challenge #56 and Color Throwdown #169



Hello!  It's time for another Your Next Stamp Challenge, and this time we want to see Die Cuts on your creations!  I don't know about you, but I am totally addicted to dies.  I especially love the new Your Next Dies that YNS is now carrying!!! 

I made a fun little gift card holder today using this darling snowman image from the YNS set Snowman Delight.  I just had to add a strand of lights using the Light Up the Holidays Die and Stamp Set, and I also added some trees using the Happy Holidays Die and Stamp Set.  The snow hills were made with the PTI In the Meadow Die Collection.  Make sure you check out the YNS Blog to see the prize up for grabs for this challenge, and to link up your YNS creations!

I used the awesome color combo from this week's Color Throwdown hosted by the fabulous Lori Tecler!  We hope you'll play along with us!  Just link your CTD challenge cards HERE and make sure you stop by the Color Throwdown Blog to check out the rest of the DT's awesome creations!

Thank you so much for stopping by and have a wonderful Thanksgiving Eve!
