DCWV+The Ribbon Resource Christmas Craft Ideas !! DAY 4

Hello and welcome to day 4 of the Ribbon Resource and DCWV blog hop.
Today I'm going to share the Advent Calendar I created with the Merry Memories Stack from DCWV and pretty ribbons and twines from May Arts Ribbon (The Ribbon Resource).

Christmas Advent Calendar

I created small 'seed packets" with most of the beautiful papers in the stack for my Advent calendar and attached them on paper cording ( stapled behind a large wood frame) with small clothespins.

Packets are 3 X 4 1/2.

I left a small loop of twine in the back to use to attach packets with clothespins.

Supplies Used:

DCVW-Merry Memories Stack

1.5" Natural ribbon with red velvet polka dots

2mm White paper cord

2mm Red paper cord

Ivory burlap string

Thanks so much for visiting !!

Grow Zinnias

Hello and welcome ! 

Sharing a Mother's day themed gift set today on the Spellbinders Blog.

Bright and bold zinnias have been featured in my family's gardens for as long as I can remember ,so it was a great pleasure to make this bright orange bloom with the Create-a -Flower Zinnia die set.

Grow Zinnias

Here's a close up of the Zinnia :)

I added a small shovel, gardening gloves and a package of zinnia seeds in the flower pot before wrapping it with cellophane.
The step by step instructions for this project are on the Spellbinders blog :)

Happy Crafting !
