ETA: Thanks to Nichole and the random number generator for picking this card as one of the winners of the Blog Hop this month! Now, I have the hard task of picking out a stamp set! So many awesome sets to choose from!
I'm very excited for this month's PTI Blog Hop! Here's Nichole's challenge for us:
Holiday Leftovers
It's that time again for our annual holiday leftovers challenge! Use scraps of wrapping paper, parts of holiday cards, recycle gift tags or bits of ribbon on a paper crafting project. We all have plenty of it laying around after all the holiday excitement and this is your chance to incorporate some of those pretty little things into an amazing piece of art!

We had a family Christmas with my aunt the Saturday before Christmas, and she had the cutest little tags on everyone's gifts. I used the one she gave me to create this card:
I stamped the background with Tin Types, cut out a border with the new Banner Borders die and some snowflakes from the Peace Be Still die set. The sentiment is from this year's Holiday Tags (love them!!)
Here's another view:
I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with using their leftovers! I have a few more of these cute tags that I snagged after my sisters opened their gifts...they don't know what they were overlooking!
Have fun on the hop!
