Christmas Blog Hop Day 1

Hi Everyone. Welcome to day 1 of the Christmas Blog Hop. If you are here for the Christmas Blog Hop then you are in the right place! If you are just visiting my blog and would like to join in on all of the fun, please be sure to visit Josy's Blog to start at the beginning of the hop. You should have arrived from Bobbi's Hobbies Blog and after my blog you will be going to Kreimers blog.

This is going to be a two (2) day event. So be sure to stop by on both days to enjoy the new projects that will be featured. We have a terrific group of ladies who have put together some amazing projects to get you in the spirit of Christmas.

I decided to make a few cards from the newly released Cricut cartridge, Inspired Heart. I love how easy is was to cut the images. This cartridge also has some great phrases with different fonts. These are all A2 size cards (4.24 x 5.5).
