12 days of Christmas Blog Hop Day 1






12 days of Christmas Blog Hop.
 Hop along today for some Holiday craft inspiration! The Blog Hop lineup is filled with some wonderfully Talented ladies showing off thier projects








For my first Project I decorated an Advent tree that I bought at Starbucks last year the day after Christmas. The background paper is from Pine Cone Press. Numbers were cut out with the Cricut using the Plantain schoolbook cartridge, I used some dies from Quikutz for the gingerbread people, tree and stars. Snowflake and holly leaves are punches. I used some red buttons as berries and a Red bow button for the top of the tree. I will be filling this with small candies and christmas erasers for my 9 year old. I think this will be perfect to help him countdown the days until Christmas.


Blog Candy





I will be giving away 12 items in honor of the 12 days of Christmas blog hop. The first 5 are shown in this picture. 7 more items will be added throughout the next 11 days of the hop. You must be a Follower to win. Leave a comment on this post for a chance to win. I will pick a winner on December 9th.

Make sure you stop by tomorrow to see my next project
