Humble Home Merry Christmas card

 For my card today, I’ve combined a couple of bundles to make this Christmas card.  I could have used a sentiment from Humble Home, but it just didn’t fit my vision, so I pulled in the Peaceful Seasons bundle.  It is a must have sentiment and coordinating die bundle for the holidays in my opinion.  to see how I've put this card together, watch the video replay over on my YouTube channel.

Humble Home Gingerbread House Light String

Happy day Thanksgiving Eve to everyone here in the US.  I hope you have a wonderful holiday season filled with love, laughter, family and friends.  

For my project today, I've made a holiday light string using fairy lights and the Humble Home bundle.  This is not my original idea, I've recreated it from a string I saw by Anna Wheaton.  What an awesome idea it is, I just had to recreate it for you.  Of course, I've done mine a little different.  Be sure to watch the video replay to see how I've put it together.  You will find it on my YouTube channel where I share some tips and tricks to make this little gem more easily.
