11 Months 'til Christmas Hop

Hello Crafty Friends,

Can you believe we have decided to countdown to Christmas again!?!? Since we thought planning ahead was such a success and to reduce the stress this year, we are starting earlier. I am looking forward to creating Christmas cards, tags, and/or decor and being prepared. I still didn't have enough last year even with starting 6 months prior to the holidays, so I have to double up this time!

We are doing one aspect of the hop differently...monthly themes. WELL...I was just excited to start my Christmas projects that I forget to incorporate the theme..Snowbound! Let's just pretend there is snow everywhere! : )

I used non-traditional colors for this matching set...a card and a tag while using this sketch from Weekly Christmas Card Challenges.

I love presents no matter what size or color!

Materials:
Fancy Pants paper ~ St. Nick (Thank You Carissa)
burgandy and blue card stock
ivory embossed card stock
Sweethearts Cricut cartridge ~ present
blue gems
blue button
burgandy flower
ivory embroidery floss 
burgandy ink
