Hello there! Linsey here today sharing a brand new altered project and I'm super duper excited about this one! A lot of time and patience went into the making of it and I couldn't be happier with the outcome! If you are winter lover of any kind, I think you'll like it as well! So kick back, chill and enjoy a personal tour of my 3D winter wonderland creation, otherwise known as the Sub Zero Ski Lodge & Snow Park!

I had the most fun designing this festive winter escape and it was done using the new Sub Zero collection--a super cool addition to your Simple Stories stash! Mr. Merry Moose is at the front window to greet all guests upon arrival, answer questions and set you up with whatever your outdoor pleasure is for the day!

The 3-story lodge offers lovely rooms with spectacular mountain views and meals in the charming lodge dining room. For more privacy, choose one of the cozy cabins, each with its own fireplace.

Join in a snowman building contest or take an old fashioned sleigh ride through a winter wonderland!

Rent a pair of skates and go ice skating on Boone's frozen pond or feel the exhilaration of downhill tubing and sledding from the top of Wolf Peak. From the Bunny Hill to Grizzly Drop, the choice is yours! Whether it be skiing, snowboarding or one of the many other outdoor activities, this place is snow much fun for the whole family! All runs are open! 

Afterward, be sure to warm up with a cup of hot cocoa at Frosty's Snowflake Café and sit around the bonfire toasting your toes and recapping on the days activities and fun. 

And that's all for me! Thanks so much for visiting and touring my winter lodge! I hope you've been inspired and are ready to create some winter magic of your own with the Sub Zero collection! Happy crafting!

Hello there! Linsey here today sharing my latest altered project, a fun and festive 3D decoration that is sure to ring in the holidays with cheer! I used the absolutely delightful Very Merry Collection to alter my alarm clock, transforming it into a tiny winter scene leading to Kringle's Bed & Breakfast Inn! Enjoy!

This was so much fun to design and I love how it all came together! This collection is so merry and bright, it is almost impossible to not be filled with the holiday jolly when using it. There are so many sweet details, I couldn't resist using a little of everything. A happy snowman greets all guests and visitors with visions of holiday cheer along the way to 25 Kris Kringle Lane. Warm blankets, presents, caroling and hot cocoa all await you at Kringle's B&B--I don't know about you, but I'm ready to make my reservation! 

I hope you like my project and feel inspired to create some holiday magic with the Very Merry Collection too! Thank you so very much for stopping by! Have a creative and blessed day! Happy crafting!

Hi friends! Linsey with you today sharing my latest project, a home décor piece to display throughout the Fall and Thanksgiving season! I hope you enjoy! 

The Vintage Blessings collection is so beautiful and versatile! It is absolutely perfect for this time of year, as it evokes a sense of warmth, gratitude, family and home. I wanted to showcase the many different pieces of this lovely collection and found a way to do so with this vintage-style 3D shadowbox. It is filled to the brim with some of my favorites things, like the rose pattern tea set, yummy pumpkin pie and sweet birdie perched atop a tree branch. The 4x4 element "so very blessed" was chosen to center the piece because it simply says it all. 

A delicate white doily, pretty ribbons and mulberry flowers were added and they all coordinated beautifully with the papers, die cuts and stickers from this collection. A few pops of black achieved with clear stickers completes the display. 

 

And that's all for me! Thank you so much for stopping by and allowing me to share my vintage blessings shadowbox with you! I hope you found a bit of inspiration in it! Have a great day and happy crafting!
