Today we have guest designer Melanie Fink, of The Paper Retreat, sharing with us this amazing Christmas Village. Can you believe it is ALL made out of paper? She did such an amazing job.

Look at all the amazing detail she has added.

Personally, my favorite is the Christmas tree in the window, there is also a blackboard inside the school. Can you see it? Melanie this is stunning. Thank you so much for sharing your talents with us. You can check out this project with more detail on her blog here. She has added so many detailed photos and instructions, go check it out and leave her some love. Thank you Melanie. These are amazing!

On this project, Melanie used the following files.
Today Joy is sharing with us another way to use the word art titles Lori has in the shop. I absolutely adore her project. What a fun way to showcase type, which I also love. Joy says,

here is another view, no the words are not white, the light just reflects differently, creating a different look. Joy this is adorable. Thanks for sharing. Go check out more detailed instructions on Joy’s blog.

Today at jessicasprague.com Lori has new products to release. Today, it is on sale at Jessicasprague.com for 40% OFF during the Holiday Sale. That is a GREAT deal! This collection is HUGE. You can buy each set separately or as the entire collection. This kit coordinates BEAUTIFULLY with the Christmas Day collection already in the shop. Christmas Eve Collection can be found here.

I love Friday, don’t you? One of my favorite things is have 2 projects to share with you!
I have wanted to make these ever since Lori created this file,“Candy Shaped Box”. I was so happy when I saw that Natalie did it too! She made these adorable party favors for each member coming to dinner. They served double duty as table decorations, place cards and party favors (or should that be triple duty?). What a great idea. For more info head over to Natalie’s blog


Also to share with you today is this adorable sign/plague that Joy created. She used the new “Naughty is Word Art Title.” Before adding the vinyl, she painted the wood with paint and glitter (a girl after my own heart) and made it sparkle for Christmas. As always Joy has wonderful tutorials about how to cut and add vinyl to any project, so don’t be afraid to try. Her blog will lead you through, step by step. Thanks ladies, your projects are beautiful!
