12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop with TSF
Welcome to Day 8 of the 12 Days of Christmas Creations Blog Hop!
You should have arrived here from Joanne's blog. If not be sure to go back to check our her "Peace" creation. And the master list for the entire blog hop is below, so be sure to visit everyone and leave a comment for a chance to win a prize!
I have always struggled with what to do with all the lovely Christmas cards I receive each year. So this year I made a special "Believe" banner that I have hung across a shelf in my living room and I will hang my Christmas cards with mini clothes pins from twine at each end of my banner. Pretty cool!
I really had a hard time getting good photos of my banner so please forgive my photo quality! These short days with sharp angles of the sun!
I used papers from MME's Wonderful Winter collection, sparkly letters from K&Co., plus bling, ribbon, tulle, twines, ric rac and trims from my stash. I also gave my various dies a work out plus my crimper!
Here you can see the details in each banner.
And I know this is not a great photo, but you can get an idea of where I have hung it with my cards attached down the sides.
I hope this gave you a little bit of inspiration for some festive crafting this season! So tomorrow don't forget to hop on over to Shelby's blog for her big reveal!
