Thinking About Christmas

Christmas is not too far away!  In four short months we will be celebrating Christmas with Egg Nog, Clam Chowder, Turkey or Ham, Christmas Trees, Lights and more.  Christmas is a time to celebrate families along with the birth of Christ.  Have you thought about Christmas gifts yet?  My Sister-In-Law is 90% done with her Christmas shopping whereas I think I have one or two items purchased.

Here is a great idea for a heartfelt Christmas Gift.  A handmade box filled with handmade All-Occasion cards!  This is a box I made for a contest I was having on my Facebook Page.  It is filled with 10 handmade Christmas cards.  The recipient absolutely loved the box and cards.  She is also excited about not having to make 10 additional Christmas Cards to send out.  If you would love to learn how to make this box or have questions, please leave me a comment on this blog post.  You can also purchase the supplies for this box through my Stampin' Up! 24/7 store located at www.sunnygirlscraps.stampinup.net.
