Scrapbook Blessings Club

Decorate to Celebrate   is having a Holiday Party challenge. There are so many creative scrapper that participated.  You need to stop by and check out the inspiration. I decided to do a little favor for our upcoming cookie exchange.  I made a little pillow box using my Gypsy and Cricut using George and Shapes cart.  I just welded my shaped together and cut in out.  Easy to do... I decorated with pattern paper, fiber ribbon, inked the edges and made a little tag to attach.  Nothing fancy but I think they will look pretty on the table. Hope you have a blessed day and thanks for stopping by,

So today is the first Sunday of Advent and that got me thinking.... what does this mean to me? Advent comes from the Latin word meaning arrival. It is the time of year that we celebrate the coming birth of our Savior.  The candles representing Hope, Faith, Joy, Peace and Love.  The colors are 3 for royalty, pink for joy and white for His birth.  A wonderful reminder.
