Hey everyone! I hope you all had a WONDERFUL holiday! We are still enjoying family being in town, but I did want to show you some ornaments I had made before its too far past Christmas Lol. This is a DT Project for Discount Paper Crafts. All of my Christmas themed projects were made using products from Cathie's store. She has it all! I really loved this Nutcracker Sweet Paper! I made these for my scrappy besties, we did a little ornament swap, so they are all different to suit their personal tastes and likes :) Big hugs ya'll!
