Hi crafters! Today I am here sharing some gift ideas for Christmas. This year I thought I would do something different with my niece and nephew and made them some Christmas journal books. From December 1st until Christmas Eve they will have to write in these journals their dreams and wishes for Christmas. Then I will have them each share their wishes and thoughts on Christmas Eve with everyone.
I used a die from Spellbinders in the shape of a Christmas tree and used Stardream Metallic:Fairway. I just love how nice and thick this paper is and it ran through my Spellbinders Grand Calibur with such ease and it cut all the intricate pieces with just one pass. That goes to show the true quality of the paper.
Now just glue it to the front of your covers as shown below
Now you have some journal books with memories that will last a lifetime!

tossable scrap? I know I’ve mentioned that I am a scrap saver… but typically, I toss scraps like these. But when I saw this scrap of PopTones Sweet Tooth cardstock leftover from a large batch of Cricut cuts, I thought, “that would make a pretty card.”So… I decided to use the scraps as a mask for…
