Welcome to the Paper Garden Projects
Winter Wonderland Garden Walk!!!
Take a stroll through the blogs of all the Paper Gardeners and enjoy some wonderful wintry inspiration.

While you visit, FOLLOW each Gardener's blog and take note of each designer's name and their Secret Snow Word in their blog post. Once you finish your garden tour, send an E-mail to custserv@papergardenprojects.com with the list of designers and their Secret Snow Word.

Everyone who sends the correct list of designers and words will be entered in a random drawing to win a special frosty prize. You need to send an e-mail to the address above; please don't leave your list as a comment. You have until midnight (EST) on Dec. 21 to sent your snow-y list.

If you followed me from Amber's blog then you're in the right place. If not, please head over to the PGP store blog to start at the beginning.


Now, on to my project. I made these "Homemade Snowballs" paint cans for my sons' teachers using the very adorable Let's Go Sledding set by Eat Cake Graphics:

I got a pleasant surprise when my son Marcus asked to help! He plopped in all the snowball cookies in the bag and made sure they got good and covered with confectioner's sugar :).

What will the winner get for strolling? Well, here is a picture of the Frosty Prize full of paper crafting goodies.
The prize includes:
*Some
crystal snowflakes from our new button collection
*A cling mounted Alfie tasting Snow stamp from the
Official Snow Tasters stamp set.
*A jar of
crystal glitter
*A collection of frosty embellishments including buttons, white flowers, sequins, and brads
*A Colorbox chalk cat's eye ink pad


So put on your mittens and go for a garden tour (or just stay in you jammies - we won't tell).

Your next stop is over at Tangii's blog, but before you go make sure to write down my Secret Snow Word: WHITE
