Merry Christmas – Christmas Tree Chipboard Book
Merry Christmas Everyone!
I am on the road for Christmas… visiting family in Iowa. We got my parents here safely after a long two days of driving across Utah, Wyoming, Nebraska and half of Iowa. I’m a little late posting this fun project because I’ve been so busy getting ready for Christmas ( and playing with the neice and nephews), but I’ve been dying to share it with you all.
This project was something I was dreaming up after I made my Mummy Book for Halloween. I wanted to make something fun and fabulously Christmasy… and I had this fun idea, but wasn’t sure if it would work (see last Thursday’s TFT) and out of the ordinary.. at least *I* think it’s out of the ordinary.. It’s definitely out of my box and a little wonky and I love it! (Thank you Alisha Trussell for the idea to string the beads on wire!!)
Merry Christmas friends! I wish each of you a very merry Christmas and a blessed and prosperous new year!
Love ( & Inky Smiles),
Erin
(EDITED 12/26/07: OOPS! Looks like Google gobbled up the first pic soemwhere… I’d saved this post in edit mode before I left Utah and I don’t have the original digi pics with me. I will have to repost a full pic of the book when we get back to UT.)
