By
You know Christmas is getting closer when it's time for the Annual 12 days of Christmas Hop!!! Join in the fun!!! Also you can head over to Honeybearz Designs Annual 12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop Facebook Event Page. We will be playing games on this page throughout the hop. The hop will run from November 24th through December 5th. All winners prizes will be sent out after the hop has finished.

*******************************************************
Last year, we (SBC) did the one sheet wonder cards and were able to make 12 Christmas cards using various techniques. You can find the You Tube videos for those on our channel HERE.

But first who doesn't like blog candy?!  We will be giving away one November Card Kit to one lucky follower. All you have to do is be a SBC follower and leave a comment below. At the end of the hop, we will add up all the comments and randomly choose 1 winner. Here is our November Mini Card Kit...
You can find more information about our monthly card kits HERE.
*************************************************************
Now for the crafty fun!
This year, we are going to feature Christmas tags so for SBC this is the 12 Days of Tags. Each day, we will showcase a tag or more using fun and easy techniques that we promise look good on any Christmas Package.

Today we are making a tag with: a decorative top

I don't know about you but for me, it was hard to come up with something cute for the top of the tag other than just a straight edge. I have two go-to techniques to show you.

 First is using a corner punch with a little trimming, just like below.

The second is using a rounded corner punch or even the envelope punch board like this one.  I even made the cute bow using the board.

(stay tune for an upcoming bow tutorial)

 I hope you like our kick off project! I can't wait to show you tomorrow's tags.

Your next blog is Carla @ Racin' Crafts

    Both of these tags are wonderful. The first so regal and the second so fun, I like the bow. My favorite is the second, only because I like snowmen.

Building Block Graduation Card

By
Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold. You should end up with a "z" fold card. The next part can get a bit tricky, so make sure you watch the video to fully understand what I am about to explain. On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8 ...
