I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas, I know we did. It's great to see family & friends ,enjoy yummy food, play games, open gifts and also get some crafting in. I wanted to share some holiday handmade projects.

My sister, Frances hosted a wonderful Christmas gathering. At the end of a great dinner I brought out the paper, glue & scissors. The craft project of the evening was to make calendar dolls. I had bought these mini calendars from the flea market for just ten cents each.
We spread out the supplies over the table and we were all cutting and gluing.
We first made paper dolls and then attached the mini calendar to the doll.

As you may have noticed, we primarily used Catherine Moore stamps - she has such a great variety of doll images to use.

I brought Christmas paper, in case we were going to make Christmas dolls, but it turned out to be a hybrid project...so the Christmas dolls turned into Christmas calendars.
