Joy to the World!

It's our final Little Red Wagon challenge of 2019 and Jan is hosting. She's chosen the theme "Happy Winter Holidays!" which is incredibly fitting given that faiths and cultures of many kinds are preparing to celebrate. We celebrate Christmas at our house. This year, we plan to be home for Christmas Day but then my daughter and I are heading on a New Year's cruise to Grand Cayman and Jamaica. We can’t wait for sun, sand and heat!!

I used my new MFT Little Town of Bethlehem die to create my card, topped on a starry inked background. The sentiment is heat embossed and I used a stamp from My Craft Spot.

Please head over to Little Red Wagon to see what the rest of the Girlfriends have created - and then link up your own Winter holiday project!

I wish you all a joyous holiday season and, in the tradition and spirit of my family, Merry Christmas to each and every one of you!

Joy Hope Love Gift Bag

Doni is hosting at Little Red Wagon this week and she wants to see "Bells Gone Wild". Doni is looking for bells of any sort - whether images, stencilled, embellishments, etc. And those bells can be Christmas bells, wedding bells, bells ringing in the new year, cow bells, bells on cat collars - just bells!

I used a Your Next Stamp die to create my little gift bag (Cute Little Shopping Bag) and then a few of the stamps from Clearly Besotted's Nativity Play set. This is the first time I've used a product from Clearly Besotted. I bought the stamp set as my sister gave me a little mouse nativity set years ago (in the photo background, although blurred) and I thought it would be perfect to make her a little mouse nativity bag to wrap a little necklace I bought her. I finished everything off with an emBELLishment!! My little bell actually rings too!

To My Beastie

Our latest Little Red Wagon challenge is "Wrap It!". Imke is our Hostess and she'd like to see anything to do with gifts - from gift bags to gift card holders to homemade gift wrap to gift images. If there is any sort of present involved, we want to be inspired by it!

I made a fun card for my beastie (aka best friend or bestie). We have an ongoing joke between us in which we call each other yeti and I got this MFT Beast Friends stamp set a few years ago with her in mind. I coloured up a few of the gift images that come with the set.

Please head over to Little Red Wagon to see the rest of the "Wrap It" projects designed by the Girlfriends - and then link up your own gift-inspired creation!
