Reminisce Paper Lines Perfect for the Upcoming Seasons!



We have received a few new paper lines from Reminisce and one of my favorites is Santa's Workshop. I love the little Santa's, reindeer and snowmen. I made this shadowbox frame using the "Making a Snowman" paper from the line, along with fake snow, Jesse James buttons and a vinyl saying that we just got in. This was so fun and easy, that I can hardly wait to do something with the other lines they came out with.
