Festive Frames at Christmas Kickstart Challenge.

 

Another wintery day here in Auckland, NZ so a bit more time in the craft room today.  While tidying yesterday I found a set of peg stamps by Rubber Stamp Tapestry.  I see my local stamp store has a number of these type of stamps.  The set I have is called Holiday Garden set.    

Here's how I used the peg stamps to add a festive frame around my sentiment. 

I lightly drew around a circle die and then used 4 colours of CP stamps - Rockin' Red, Peppermint Scrub, Eucalyptus and Green Tea to stamp the 4 different pegs.  Added a lot of little dots of the Rockin' Red and Eucalyptus inks and a few gems for the centre of some of the flowers.  The sentiment is from a NZ company called Montarga.  And to finish this CAS card, I used the Rockin' Red and Eucalyptus inks direct to paper to die cut 2 of the smallest die from Spellbinders Poinsettia dies, in the red, and the next size up in the green.  Added some yellow gems for the centre.
