Getting ready for Christmas...

I just got back from a super-crafty weekend at the second annual Santa's Workshop Crop in western Colorado. Our little group got TONS of holiday gifts completed, like the grouping seen below:

Altered Canvas Wall Art
Please forgive the bad picture - I live in a cabin and lighting isn't always optimal!

Altered Memory/Keepsake Box
Fill with your favorite photos and hand written notes to make a perfect gift for teachers or grandparents!

Boutique Banner
Customized to the recipient's decor or favorite season

The pictures really didn't do these projects justice - they turned out so wonderful. I ended up making two more canvases - but the recipients read this blog so I have to wait a bit before posting those. I made two more of the banners, too, but one was the same as above, and one was a hostess gift for the card party I taught Friday night.

Speaking of gifts - how about giving the gift of Lucky Girl Crafts?

Now through November 24th you can receive an additional 15% off any remaining in-stock product* at www.luckygirlcrafts.com by using GIVETHANKS as your discount code at check out.

*Sorry, but this offer does not apply towards prepaid gift subscriptions.

Are you ready for a winner?

Thanks to all of you who joined us for our monthly blog party! I'm so glad you were able to stop by, and hopefully you've been inspired to create this weekend!

I know you're all anxious to hear the winner of the $25 gift certificate to the store, so without further ado, a big congratulations goes out to......

Our latest kit, Family Gatherings:

I *heart* this kit! The rich colors are reminiscent of autumn and pumpkin pie, cozy gatherings with family and close friends and a handful of traditions you hold near and dear. While this kit is perfect for Thanksgiving and fall festivities, I did a lot of heritage layouts and projects using pictures from my child hood. I can't wait to share them with you... just a few days until our monthly blog party!

And, because I'm such a Lucky Girl with all of your support, we've only got FIVE kits left and they just went live today! Get yours before they're gone at www.luckygirlcrafts.com
