Simple Christmas Star Book

I love some of the older papers and stamps from CTMH!! Here
is a star book I made by simply folding a piece of green cardstock
into 'mountains' and 'valleys' and then adhereing 6x6 pieces of
decorated black cardstock to 'one side of the mountain as seen
below. This book can also lay flat or the last photo shows it
standing in all it's beauty from the side. There are lots of
hidden places to place photos in or do journaling!
Hope you enjoy it!!
May God bless your ART!!...and your heart!

What are you thankful for?

I hope you all have a wonderfully blessed Thanksgiving time! Here is a project I made
a couple of years ago I call my Thankful Can. My family puts in notes of all we are
thankful for starting in early November and then after we eat Thanksgiving Dinner
we read all the cards together. It's a simple but meaningful activity that I look forward
to each year! Here's the top:

Gifts for Indian Sisters-in-Christ...

Several women from our church are going to India to hold a conference and support
our Sisters-in Christ in India and I was asked to make something to encourage them.
I have embroidered crosses/Christ embellishments on the nicest dishtowels I could
find. I'm including a homemade card with each one and tied each with a ribbon.
If you click on the photos you can see them closer. The towels are folded:

Tags in a Tin

Here is my Ten Tags in a Tin Class!!
I couldn't resist making the tin a snowman
face ornament, too! Inside the tin is the 10
tags with their ties (no one was more excited
than me that it all FIT!!)


Here are a couple of photos of the tin with the tags surrounding it!
If you are a customer of mine and want to add this to the gifts you
are making, be sure to send me an email by Thursday night :o)

May God bless your ART!...and your heart,
