Santa Book Plates

Are you giving any books this year?  I love giving books at Christmas!  I just made some darling Santa Book Plates for the books I'm giving this year.  I love that Santa is reading a book - couldn't be more perfect.  You can download the sheet of Santa Book Plates below.

This is a stack of books for Charlotte (my daughter's niece).   I'm also going to package up some extra book plates for her to put inside the Christmas books that she already has.  

You can type in the names before you print or they can be handwritten.   I printed them on sticker paper and then cut them out with a paper cutter.  Quick, easy and cute!

Have a wonderful Christmas!

Merry Christmas! + Free Images

Are you ready?  I think I've got everything planned.   I made gingerbread and sugar cookie doughs today and they are chilling in the fridge.  I'm getting ready to make a marinara sauce for the lasagne roll ups we're having Christmas Eve.  Can't wait for everyone to get here!

I've got a couple more of the Red, White and Gold Christmas Card Collection to share today.

You can download the vintage snowman HERE.

And the Santa (full image) HERE.  I cut out just a portion of the image for the center of my snowflake.

Just right click and download.

So glad you stopped by!  Here's wishing you and yours all the best at Christmas!

Christmas in July Day 3

Hi, there!  Welcome to Day 3 of Christmas in July!  This is the last day of projects featuring Christmas images from Free Pretty Things for You and ChouxChoux Paper Arts.  We're so glad that you've joined us!

First up today is a most darling Santa.  I printed this card large (or maybe I should say long).  It's about 4 1/8" x 9".    

This Santa is so cute and the size is so cool that I didn't add a lot. The snowflakes are vellum that I colored with a pink copic marker.  You can download  Santa in his car HERE.

Little Miss Christmas is making her appearance again!  This time in magenta - such a pretty color!

I made the gusseted treat bag with paper from Dreamlike Magic.  You can see a tutorial for making the gusseted bag in my post HERE.  I punched two holes in the top layer of the bag to tie on the tag.  You can download the magenta version of Little Miss Christmas at Free Pretty Things for You.

Okay, you can look at the first two Christmas in July posts to see what is in the Christmas present so far.  To all the goodies in the first post, the kit for the ornament in the second post, I'm adding a kit for the Little Miss Christmas treat bag.  The bag will already be cut and scored and you'll get everything you need except for adhesives.

Winning the Christmas in July present is easy.  Leave a comment on all three Christmas in July posts.  Let  me know in one comment that you would like to win.  Comments need to be made before 11:59 on Friday.  Random winner will be announced on Saturday, July 19th.  Be sure to check back on Saturday to see if you've won.

I hope you've enjoyed Christmas in July and Little Miss Christmas in all her finery.   Be sure to take a look at all the wonderful images available at Free Pretty Things for You. 

Happy Christmas (in July)!

Christmas Fun at The Cutting Cafe

It's Christmas Fun time at The Cutting Cafe.  We are all using the cut file Christmas Ornament Fun.

I love the shape of this ornament - it makes a wonderful tag!  I used the nesting ornament portion of the cut file to cut the red background and music ornament pieces.  Be sure to check out The Cutting Cafe Blog for this week's inspiration and special.  I'm sure Regina has got something fun!
