next three things

Not that there was a first three things- but these are the next three things I think I might take a shot at. Did I mention that all of these things can be made/purchased for under $10 total. Great way to stretch your Christmas budget and make some awesome projects over the breaks. 

 

I've seen these wreaths before and thought about making one...but never quite knew for sure how. Lindsay has a great tutorial (complete with video!) on her blog. I love how she bought everything at the dollar store- makes me want to make one now. 

 

These little guys at Mibo studio are going into Reiley's room...and maybe my room...and maybe the babies room too. A printable sheet you can use over and over again- perfect crafting that Reiley and I can do together. This shop also has an awesome printable calendar and printable Christmas figures (which would make a perfect project over the Christmas break!). 

 

This new digital kit (and Karla's other book template kit). Check out all of her digikits here. I don't do much in the way of digital scrapbooking...just kinda getting started on that and learning as I go- but these I had to have. Very excited to try them out and my mind is spinning with all the different ways I can use them! Karla has an awesome blog too. Extremely talented and her kids are just too cute!

So, now that you are back from all of your Christmas shopping this weekend (and if you have $10 left over) you can work on a few projects with me.

Also, check out the Good Grief blog today for a new challenge...writing! I went ahead and used the digital kit up above for my challenge and did a layout about my Mema's (grandmother's) writing in her recipe cards. A great reminder on how we should incorporate some of our own handwriting in our scrapbooks from time to time...even if you don't like it- somebody will cherish it.

AND...I have my December Daily album all finished up and ready to start documenting each day. I am going to be posting a photo of the first day and cover hopefully tomorrow along with a free printable that I used (and you can too!)

If you are working on a December Daily album also please link in the comments- I would love to see it and have already been checking out everyone's work they have sent me...along with keeping up in Shimelle's class and trying to incorporate that also (this is the 3rd or 4th year I have done her class- I love it!) I have to say these December albums are some of my favorites out of all my scrapbooks!

Happy Tuesday!

Me too! I picked up my supplies today...although I passed on the dollar store wreath and ended up picking up a larger one somewhere else. So, now my '$2' project ended up being more ;)
