Hello Crafty Friends and

--------------------

I am so excited to share my project with you today!
I had an absolute fun time creating this project with a bunch of my lovely Top Dog Dies!

I decided to begin with the my Tag Album Die!  As it was my goal to create a Christmas album! I used it to cut a few tags from chipboard.  It cut perfectly!

Here's the finished look:

I just love how it turned out!!

Aside from using the Tag Album Die I used the Madison Border Die for the border behind the Merry Christmas sentiment from Inspired By Stamping. 

I also then used the Snowflake Trio Die Set to create this poinsettia! 

Then I added some flourishes behind it using the Leafy Flourishes Die Set!

The next page features a holiday sentiment, along with some snowflakes from the Snowflake Trio Die Set.

I also used the Nameplates Die on this page!  I cut the die once to create the vary back "border" behind the red paper and then again for behind the sentiment.  As well as cutting one more time, but then cutting it down to just fit the sentiment on.

As I was creating this I thought it would be fun to create this as an album card/gift card holder!

So for the last page I altered the Treat Bag Die!  I cut out the entire bag, but then cut the handles off along with half of the bag.  I only used the sides and one front of the bag and glued and folded it up to hold a gift card!!  It was the perfect size!!  So exciting!! 

The gift card pulls out perfectly!

What a fun idea!
