Today's TLC348 is to stamp your border. I bought this small, peg snowman stamp over the weekend and it was just perfect for the challenge.
I stamped the snowman around three sides of my wreath. I made the wreath with remnants from a Martha Stewart Aspen snowflake punch. The, I ran it through my Swiss Dots embossing folder and embedded the wreath and chain.
The large snowflakes at the bottom are MS punch all over the page. It's a new toy and I really like it because, unlike the earlier ones, it has a guide on the bottom.
