Festival of Christmas - Last Minute

December 20, 2019

So Senitmental (2 of 3).jpg

Hello again! Welcome to our last Crafty Festival Of Christmas blog hop. A refresher … I am making and sharing holiday projects every Friday until Christmas in an event my friends and I are calling the ‘CRAFTY Festival of Christmas’. Every week we will feature a different theme.

Check out our previous hops:

  1. Snarky or Snowy cards

  2. Fancy fold or Mass production projects

  3. This week our theme is Gift card holders or tags

  4. I missed this one but you can start here

  5. Last Minute Lucy

Neighbor gifts always seem to be the last project I tackle. This year I made a double batch of caramel and packaged in disposable case. I normally cut and wrap each caramel individually however due to lack of time I opted to give out containers full of caramel. Caramel recipe is at the end of this post. Yum!

Yummilicious, such a funny non-word sentiment. This stamp image is from the stamp set called ‘So Sentimental’. This set will be available Jan 3 from Stampin’ Up! Full supply list can be found below.

Blog Roll:

1. Tania Cordie.
2. Tanya Boser
3. Linda Van Wely
4. Lynnea Hollendonner.
5. Charlet Mallett. (You are here)

The mornings are chilly and crisp, and you can just smell fall in the air. The Global Design Project has a “Harvest” theme challenge this week. #GDP563 The deer have been eating their way through my garden harvest, but I did manage to get a couple of zucchini last week. Bread will be baked. Since my garden is a bust, I guess I’ll have to garden by card! Stamp set is called Painted Pumpkins. Play along with with our harvest theme: @global_design_project #stampinup #cardmaker #paintedpumpkins #pumpkincard
