Happy Thanksgiving & Holiday Inspiration

27 Nov

Hello Friends! Happy Thanksgiving to those of you here in the USA and for our other fans who aren’t here, you really don’t need an excuse to eat some pie do you? 😉 Today we have some holiday inspiration to share from Maggi Harding and Tonya Trantham! They put some interesting twists on the dies they used. Check it out…

Think outside of the box when using your dies:

First up we have Maggi’s darling Trinket Box with a shaker box in the top! What a clever and festive touch. Inside she filled the box with easy to make gift tags. Wouldn’t this be a wonderful hostess gift for the season?

Be sure to check out her video tutorial on her blog! Here are the tags that are inside the box:

Next up is Tonya Trantham’s mini journal made with… the sleeve from the Stacking Drawer Die! Now that is really thinking outside of the box (or drawer in this case lol). Be sure to peruse her blog post for oodles of photos and instructions.

There are three signatures inside with tons of details, pockets and tuck spots. Isn’t it cute?

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful rest of the week!

Inspiration for the holidays next week too!
