Happy Friday!

This is our first challenge for the month of December, we are starting a bit early due to the number of Fridays between now and the end of December, and the upcoming holidays.  You do still have a couple of days to play along with our November challenges, too!


And here is your Team A DT inspiration!

Button Bracelets | Tutorial

Hi there!

I am sharing a simple button bracelet tutorial today.  I know that you likely have a great button stash, and this is a fun way to use some of them up.

You will need buttons and twine.

It is a great activity to do with kids, and they can even quickly make a few for friends for the holidays.

Feed the twine down through the button holes leaving a loop to push the tails though.

My son's school has been focusing a lot on friendships and kindness lately and I think this is important world wide.

Knot the ends.



This would also make a great activity to do with the kids while they are off on winter break.  Especially if the weather is not conducive to going out to play.

fasten around the wrist with a simple knot. Not too tight.

You could even add a couple of beads on either side if youlike.  Festive colours would be great, too!

Thanks for visiting, enjoy!

Kit Club Tuesday

Hi friends!

We are sharing a couple of last project from Elaine today, using the November Premium Kit Club contents!

First up is this super fun layout...



... we are so loving this colour combo and the turned down corner on that patterned paper is so pretty.

Elaine also made a couple of cards...


I am always surprised that she says she is not a cardmaker when she produces such beauties!

So glad that you visited today!
