The design team at Storage Units, Ink & More! is still working on making those sets really stretch out over the year. I mean, you buy those holiday sets and then they just sit in a box or on a shelf. What else can you do with them? Well....think outside the box and make the images fit for other occasions.
Here's the first thing that came to mind for me....I love this little sledding boy from the SNOW DAY set. But let's see what he can do on the water. Can he hang ten? SURE HE CAN! I colored his snow clothes a bright "Body Glove" yellow so that he's wearing a wetsuit. What's he got on his head?....uh...not sure...lets pretend it's the hood for the wetsuit...ha ha. And his surfboard is a little curvy...but you have to overlook these things and see the big picture. I think it works! And I also used the little palm tree from the OH HOLY NIGHT set to create the tropical scene. See...VOILA! A great card that you could send from your island vacation to the family back home. Give it a try!
