First we want to wish our American Friends a Happy Thanksgiving!
Today we have so much fun for all of you holiday crafters. It was difficult to narrow our crafty works to 1 item, but you don't have to. Show us all of your holiday creations!

Wowsers, ladies! What a beautiful line up of Christmas creations! Really gorgeous! Congratulations to Deb, and all of us, for that matter! Deb's tag is a lovely tribute to the fallen veterans!
ReplyDeleteKim, It looks as if I'm going to have to comment on your make here...I love all that glitter on the trees or is that Soft Fallen Snow? Santa and his sleigh look great magically flying across your moonlit sky! Beautiful Christmas scene! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteLOL Sara, you're awesome. I will hopefully write up the directions for the weekend. It's been hectic with a funeral and classes starting. The trees are Tim Holtz mirror and edge die I brushed them with a mix of lucky clover and walnut stain and then yes it was a very light dusting of the snow powder and heat setting before the paint fully dried.
DeleteCongrats on your win Deb!! Your tag is beautiful!! DT...amazing as always, you all inspire on a regular basis!!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, thank you so much for choosing my tag as your winner! Wonderful inspiration from the DT this month, thanks for sharing your beautiful creations with us all. Off to send you an email Kim, woo-hoo! Deb xo
ReplyDeleteWOW, the DT is on Holiday fire! Each project is so thoughtful, festive and covered in icicles and snow! I loved seeing everyone's project. Such fabulous inspiration!
ReplyDeleteLots of Christmas inspiration here!! And all so different in design; NICE NICE!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Cathy Petosky for stopping by my blog and recommending me to upload my Christmas Lantern project for this challenge - Lots of great inspiration by the DT - have a blessed week!
ReplyDeleteQuestion about the challenge - what is the limit to upload projects? I see this challenge is unlimited - is there a set limit for future challenges? I am new the blog -being sent over by Cathy P - thank you Cathy -have a blessed week!
ReplyDeleteI don't plan on having a limit yet. I'm so small and haven't had more then12-14 entries so add away. If it comes up maybe I will cap it at 5 but j don't intend to stop the creative sharing yet :). Thank you for the excellent question and things to think about for the future.
DeleteThank you Kim - Cathy was so kind to tell me about your challenge - there are some great displays here - must to learn from others - have a great week!
DeleteHi Gail, I just had a system crash and need your links so i can put you up on the new service provider. Sorry for the incovenience
DeleteWow, your DT projects look amazing! So impressive and inspiring! I am new here and I just joined as a follower! I am Canadian so I was super excited to find your challenge! I just linked up my gift set, but I can't see my entry. I tried it a second time but I still don't see it. Here's my link - maybe you can let me know if there's a problem:

I tried a third time, silly me, but I still don't see it. I have the proper link to your challenge in my blog post so I'm really not sure what I'm doing wrong. I've entered 3 times with the same blog post, but I think it's okay because my blog post contained 3 items: a card, tag, and snow globe. Thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteWelcome and thanks for joining us. I will check you post later today and help you link up and then let you know if I found an issue from your end or mine.
DeleteBack again to join the fun. Lovely inspiration from the DT. Hugz
ReplyDeleteYay! Thanks for coming back
DeleteOkay, I was finally successful! Still unable to link up with my blog but I entered using Flickr. Hope that's okay. There's a link to my blog post on the Flickr photos and also in the comment above. Yay! I was finally able to link up!.
ReplyDeleteSo bizarre but at least it's up and linking through Flickr is good enough.
DeleteGorgeous designs by the lovely DT! Congrats to Deb and everyone for their tributes to our soldiers. And thank you for the top 3. We shall meet again soon. Happy Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteFabulous inspiration from the Design Team, thank you for the challenge.

DeleteBack again to link up a holiday project but for some strange reason I'm not seeing the linky tool or anyone's projects (besides the lovely projects from the DT that is!). Here is the link to my post:

If you are following this challenge and entered your own piece please send me the link. We had a technical issue that lost most of the data on my best attended challenge yet. :(
ReplyDeleteHi Kim - I was going to stop at 5 but I am so happy how my sled turned out I wanted to post it here - sometimes I amaze myself and I really do not mean to be bragging on me - but I am just amazed I got this sled to look like this by mixing chalk, markers, and ink - So sorry about the technical difficulties - I sent an email regarding #3 upload here - have a blessed evening.
ReplyDeleteOh, wow! Look at all the amazing entries! Love them all! x
ReplyDeleteWOW! So many beautiful entries and the DT knocked this out of the park!! Thrilled that someone stopped by my blog and told me about the challenge ~ Christi
ReplyDeleteI am thrilled you decided to join us, Christi!
