Papertrey November Blog Hop Challenge


It's blog hop day at Papertrey Ink! Today's inspiration: cover art. I'll admit, I do often judge a book by its cover. And the covers below are pretty amazing!

For some reason, my eye was instantly drawn to the cover in the lower left hand corner. There was something about the color and style of the art that harkened back to my childhood. It just says "happy holiday claymation shows", don't you think? Rudolph, The Year Without A Santa Claus, Santa Claus is Comin' To Town. Ah, memories!

Here's my interpretation:


{Today's Brew: PTI card stock, PTI Beautiful Blessings Holiday stamp set (sentiment), PTI Love Lives Here Holiday (trees and die),  PTI Rustic Snowflakes stamp set, PTI WW die (merry), SU inks (melon mambo, wild wasabi, tempting turquoise, daffodil delight, tangerine tango), Stickles}


Thanks for visiting the cafe today!
