Here is my project...a little planner to help keep your Christmas organized and things straight in your head...lol. I know I am always forgetting something, so a place to jot everything down seems a good idea. I hope you like it!

I used my Cinch to assemble this little book. And aren't those die cut letters to die for?! I LOVE this new release so much....so many "go to" sets that will always be right at your fingertips.

I created three separate tabs for the most important areas of your holiday, Food, Gifts, and To Do. This is the food tab....hot chocolate....mmmm. And the little circle for all the food goodies that will be made.

And of course the stockings will be hung and filled with little gifts. I cut out the little stockings, colored, and hung on the holly vine. Used a die for the stamped sentiment. All details will be at the end of this post.

And last of all....that list of all that needs to be done. Things to buy, tasks to be done, calls to make....all that sort of stuff. And we all have lots to do, and don't want to forget anything! I used the new label font stamps on this page. I LOVE that set! Trust me when I say, everything in this release is going to be so incredibly useful for almost everything you make. 

Here is my list of the sets used in this project.

My Creative Time
Lower Case Fun Dies ~ New release
Label Font Stamp Set ~ New release
Vintage Stitched Label Die ~ New release
 Scallop & Stitched Circle Die
You Are Perk-fect Stamp Set
Do the Cocoa Motion Stamp Set
All Around Goodies Stamp Set
Warm Holiday Fun Stamp Set
Stitched Oval Die

One other quick little post...a card I made using some from the new release.

I used the alpha die to create the monogram for the front of this card...me..."C"...lol. I cut a couple out of cereal boxes and one out of designer paper so it has good thickness to it. I centered that in my fave scallop set, put that on the new label die, and layered up on the rest of the card. Easy, but I think it looks super cute! Added a few green pearls and a little bow and called this one done! Here's what I used:

My Creative Time
Scallop & Stitched Circle Die
Vintage Label Stamp Set ~ New release
Vintage Stitched Label Die ~ New release
Lower Case Fun Dies ~ New release
Tag Dies

Be sure to hit up all the other designers blogs and leave some love....Emma will draw from these comments for the winners of the give away. Enjoy the hop!

Cheryl ~ that's me!
