The Watercooler Rock Star

Chris

Heidi's Rock Star:  Our cold snap and new snow make Christmas seem a lot closer, somehow. I love the tent card. Having that wonderful snowflake-filled patterned paper show through the circular cut-out really adds a lot of depth. The die cut snowflake border around the arch frames the adorable Santa and celebrating reindeer beautifully. And the colouring---the perfect crowning touch. Love it!

Congratulations Chris!  Here is your badge to proudly display on your blog designating you as our Watercooler Rock Star.
