All I Want For Christmas

We're so happy you could join us for this super-fun hop showcasing cards, layouts and projects that feature everything about what these ladies want for Christmas!!  You'll find an array of ideas throughout the hop -- We hope you'll enjoy each and every project along the way!!

If you've hopped over from Suzanne then you are in the right place!!  If you've just popped in to visit my blog or are reading this via email and you'd like to join our All I Want For Christmas  FUN, then please CLICK HERE http://handmadewithlove-lisa.blogspot.com/ at Lisa's blog!!  Keep alert for blog candy along the way as some hop stops will be offering some goodies...



I decided to make a bookmark for a stocking stuffer for my friend. She loves to read and takes very good care of her books. She wouldn't put just any bookmark in them because she wouldn't want one that would damage her books. So I decided to go with this one. It goes over the page she is on and has 2 magnets, one on the front and one on the back. When you close it, the magnets stick and keep your place secure and don't harm your books at all. I hope she likes this. I used 2 different K. Andrew design stamps - winter wishes and amazing you. The snowman is from a retired stamp-in up set. I designed the bookmark on my gypsy using George and Basic shapes (a rectangle and and oval and then welded them together). Super easy and quick. I think I'm going to make more of them for my friends at church to put in their Bibles.
Thanks for visiting me today and happy crafting.
God Bless
Sherry
