Hello, I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas! The house it still a mess with toys and wrappings scattered throughout the house but I wouldn't trade it for the world. We had a great Christmas this year and the kids are having a ball playing with their new treasures.
I wanted to share a special Christmas sketch that I made with my My Creative Scrapbook December Main kit.
Thanks for stopping by today, Happy Holidays!!

More Winter Wonderland
Yesterday I shared a few projects using the Winter Wonderland collection from Die-Versions. Today I have a few more to share.
Another BEAUTIFUL die is the Cozy Fireplace die. It is so detailed and perfect as it is. Again, I cut the die out in several different colors and pieced it back together. I added a few dots of red glitter for berries and rhinestones for the fireplace swag. I adhered the finished die to a small embroidery hoop and I now have a new ornament for my Christmas tree.
I made this card using the All Bundled Up die along with the Sweet Petite Snowman. I cut the snowman in white, black and brown and pieced him back together before giving him a warm scarf to complete the look.
You can see these and more ideas using DV dies on Die-Versions BLOG.

Winter Wonderland with Die-Versions Dies
I know some of you are getting snow already, here in Virginia we're not that lucky...yet. Die-Versions has a beautiful collection out called "Winter Wonderland". It is GOEGEOUS! I have a few projects to share using these fabulous dies.
Here I used the following dies:
Bundled Up Enhanced Spot
Snowman Sweet Petite die
Hat and Mittens whisper die
Isn't this Polar Bear just the cutest? I added footprints in the snow and glittered snowflakes to complete the chilly, wintery scene

My Creative Scrapbook Release Day 4
It's Day 4 and the final day of showcasing the layouts and cards I made using the beautiful December Main kit from My Creative Scrapbook.
Every year our church puts on an amazing Christmas party with food, a Holiday program and games. I love our church! This year my boys got to be apart of a little skit which they performs so cutely!
I had plenty of leftover scraps from my kit so I used them to make a few cards. It wouldn't be Christmas without cards, right?
I hope you get your hand on this kit, I'm sure they will be going quick!
Thanks for looking!

My Creative Scrapbook Release Day 3
Moving along with release week using this beautiful Christmas kit from My Creative Scrapbook...
We use to buy artificial trees because it was easier and more cost efficient, but we missed the fun of finding "our" tree and of course the great pine smell so we have been cutting down our own tree from Christmas tree farms for the past few years. The adventure and memories are so fun, I know the kids will look back and remember those good times.
Last year, while searching for a Christmas Tree farm we took a detour and stopped at Harper's Ferry. The little town is so adorable and the history is incredible. That was a great day!
Thanks for stopping by today!
