Today we are Showcasing:
 Melanie Muenchinger's new set
Fabulous Holiday Fillers:

On this one I used Gina K Designs White & Ocean Mist
 Pure Luxury Card Stock.
Using Ocean Mist Ink I stamped these cute little stars.
I wanted some of them to be falling stars! 
I used the inverted scallop die and a round die
to create a pop up for my sentiment! 
 Then added some bling.
*******
On this next one I used
Pure Luxury Card Stock in Powder Blue & White,
Inks in Black & Powder Blue.
I used Powder blue ink refill to paint around the belly band.

Here is a look at this wonderful set.
It is available at Gina K Designs
