MCT 12 Days of Christmas ~ Day 6

If you're here for the Scrapbuggy Tuesday post, click here or scroll to next post below. 


Welcome to the 12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop with My Creative Time!
We hope that the ideas we share will help you with your last minute decorating and gift ideas! There will be giveaways on the My Creative Time blog EVERY day during the 12 days hop, become a follower of this blog, and be sure to also comment on each blog every day for your chance to win a prize EACH DAY! 

Be sure to leave a way for us to contact you in case you win! :)

Today's project is a simple little garland. So easy the kids could make it!






Decide on what shape you want to use. I used these sweet little ginger people, but you could use stars, trees, snowflakes, santas, holly leaves....anything you like really! Then punch holes in each side using an eyelet punch or paper piercer.





Stamp and mark to your hearts desire. {Get it? hearts? LOL}


Gather your twine, buttons, and tags and start stringing. :) I used one of the large needles from my Bind it All piercer tool and it fit perfectly through the smallest eyelet punch hole. Be sure your needle fits through your buttons, though. Not all button holes are created equal. 






Here's the line up. If you are starting at my blog, be sure to hop on over to Emma's blog to
start at the beginning so you can be entered for today's drawing.
