holiday planner…

edited***cynthia ewer, editor of organized christmas, just featured this planner here!  thanks so much, cynthia!  her site is full of wonderful christmas ideas, that you’ll want to check out…

for the notepad holder, start with nichole’s free template (thanks, nichole!).

use the cricut to cut out the tags. (the tag holes are screaming for ribbon, but i wanted to keep things flat as possible). 

the snowflakes and the word “notes”  look faded.  to achieve this, stamp first on scrap paper, then stamp a second time onto the project, (without re-inking).   this technique is called 2nd generation stamping. 

ink chocolate all around the edges of the tags and holder, and your done.

***you could pass out the tags to people on your xmas shopping list, at thanksgiving.  they can fill them out with gift ideas, colors, sizes, ect.  then, just tuck the tags into your purse and go shopping!

stamps:  take note,  vintage labels, signature christmas, snowfall additions, snowfall,  stocking prints, journaling lines-(wow, i didn’t realize how many sets i had used!)

papers:  kraft, rustic cream, rustic snowflakes papers, vintage cream notepads

inks:  pure poppy, ocean tides, chocolate

ribbon:  ocean tides

other:  clear diamond accent
