I couldn't wait to show you my Pink Paislee goodness. I loved working with the Mistletoe & Co Collection. It is a fabulous line!
My favorite project was an altered cake stand and decorated candle. The patterned paper was the perfect compliment to what I had in mind.

Because the candle was more than 12" in diameter I chose to create a candle "bustier" by using eyelets and ribbon and cinching it up the back! It became both functional and elegant!

For the base of the cake stand I used a scalloped punch which I turned into a flower. After adding a glittered snowflake and a Pink Paislee brad, this became a beautiful embellishment.

I created this layouts and used the Pink Paislee Pixie Stix on the chipboard frame.
Here is a closeup:

Here is a 2 page layout I created with Pink Paislee's Mistletoe & Co. line. Isn't it wonderful how different the 2 layouts are even though they are created using the same line?
