Dec Blog hop

Welcome to our Joyful Stars December Blog Hop!  

As we prepare for the Holiday season,

 there are so many ways we can use the gifts God has given us. We can decorate the 

tree,( see my cat loving the outdoors coming inside) make greetings for your family and

 friends. We can prepare food, make favors, write a thank you note letting the ones that 

help us throughout the year know that we appreciate them. Have fun hopping from blog to

 blog to see what we have created. 

Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year!

 I had some pcs left over from a workshop, so I tried to use as many as I could to make some cards with our Sparkle and Shine paper packet.

Close To My Heart is offering FREE tags to print for you gift giving.  Just go to CTMH.com, under promotions and find ReDiscover and you can print these beautiful tags. These will only be available this month.

Here is a quick favor idea, just cut out snowflakes with the Cricut, I used Art Philosophy and the snowflake stamp set D1480.  Glue dot a Hershey kiss and set it at everyone's plate.  You can add a tag with the person's name if you like.

Hop from my blog to Nicki's if you get lost just come back and follow the list below.

Wedding acessories

Flower girl basket

My daughter got  married and we had 3 weeks to put the wedding together, here are some of the things I made. 

Ring bearer pillows

Wedding invitation

Guest book , oops never took a picture of the finished front of the guest book

This is the center pieces for  for the wedding.  I used our new non-stick scissors  to cut the grip and stick to afix the glass  together and the candle to the center. Love it!

Centerpieces

I gave these pumpkins to my granddaughters for Trick or Treating.  The one held some chapsticks and the other one held some headbands.  I put a velcro on the top to hold them together.  

Here is another creation I made for my Open House, each pie wedge can have a special treat inside. This would make a great centerpiece or party favors.
