Stampin' For Christmas April Blog Hop

Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator 

Welcome to my blog, thank you for joining me today 😀

I am on my second blog hop for the day, this time it is the Stampin' For Christmas blog hop.  This is giving me that chance to use this stunning Simply Elegant DSP before it retires for this card. I always think that the pattern in this sheet looks a bit like snowflakes so I am also using another product that is retiring soon, the SO Many Snowflakes dies set. The sentiment is from Poinsettia Petals which is also retiring soon. I am going to miss everyone of these products I have used today.
