Tube of Choice - I used one of the Christmas gifts by Keith Garvey from last
year @ MPT. However, I think this tube is now available to
buy if you'd like to use the same
Scrapkit - PTU - I'm using "Holiday Wishes" by Jessica @ Gothic Inspirations
I used this in my last PTU tut, but I said at the time, it's packed
full of goodies perfect for taggies...and I wasn't kidding lol!
If you'd like to purchase the kit, go to Jessica's blog for more
