I am so excited about the 12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop! I started this month by completing my Kiwi Lane Design Team post.  I used a 6x6 Authentique paper pad and a matching component sheet.  You can see my Kiwi Lane DT post for the first 3 projects with the Authentique paper.  I was looking at the rest of this paper pad and said I just want to use it all up and have no scraps left.  So I went with it!  I will throw in some other projects I have worked on but you will be seeing how many projects one can make out of a 6x6 pad of paper.  I thought it was an interesting experiment.

So this side step card is project #4. 

I have had this mismatched Stampin Up stamp for a while but just got the awesome embossing powder!  It went great with my satin reindeer ribbon!

Ingredients:

Kiwi Lane Traditions 1 & Holiday 6T

Authentique Believe 6x6 and components

Stampin Up reindeer stamp

American Craft Brown Suger Ink

Stampendous Aged Ivory embossing powder

reindeer ribbon

Recollections stickers

pop dots
