Wplus9 Design Studio - RELEASE day 2


It truly IS Christmas in October!  


 If you don't believe me, or you're just NOT feeling it yet, THIS is a great time to be YOU!


Because THERE IS SO MUCH JOY in ALL of the sets Dawn is dazzling
us with right now - you WILL definitely see the light in all of the gorgeous
images & intricate die cut shapes to compliment & JUICE up the outrageous
possibility associated with our current release....   

CHECK out Dawn's latest post for ALL the details! 



 But WAIT, there's more!  My project for today's post features Wafer Board, 
which will soon be available in the Wplus9 inventory...   It's some SERIOUSLY
wonderful stuff, thick and kraft-like, plus easy to cut with Wplus9 dies....  However,
I used mine to make some yummy, Christmas ATC cards...  One sheet, cut into
fourths, made a scrumptious platform for dancing these stamps and dies through
the ink and DEEP into snow-covered woods...    But I digress....  



{HOW adorable is that wee-girl, adorning with Christmas!}




And S-A-N-T-A!  Oh, baby - I SURE hope I'm on the "good" list...!

{Can you PICTURE your Christmas card output this year?  Friends 
will SWEAR you spent all year fussy cutting... Psst!  I won't tell!}




Are you humming along?  Feeling the JINGLE of your credit card...  
awaiting the moment you can DROP these babies in your cart at Wplus9

~ I don't BLAME you at allllllll!~

Neither do any of THESE girls! :o)


AND, our SUPER talented guest designer, Anya Schrier!
