My Design:

I'm excited to be a part of this hop this year.  For my first card in the twelve days of Christmas blog hop I decided to do a card with a folded Christmas tree as I saw it last year.  I  decided I wanted to try it myself as I liked it so much. It looks harder to make than it actually is, you do need to use a two sided designed paper. They are fun to make once you get them down to a science. 

I am offering blog candy for those who visit my blog during the hop (this is separate from our sponsors mentioned above). It is a package of red & green artisan paper from Joleee's Boutique a fun speciality crinkle paper to help you create your handmade gifts!

Note- To be eligible for my blog candy drawing at the end of the hop you must be one of my visible Bloglovin' users so I can verify you are a follower of my blog. ツ In addition you will also need to leave a comment on my blog.  So don't forget to come back each day to visit & leave feedback for an additional entry.   Good Luck!!
