been a wonderful treat full of inspiration and freebies too! Don't forget to share YOUR creations in our gallery.
All remaining winners of contests will be announced next week.
New Paper Piecing Elements from Michelle Filo allow you to create elements to perfectly match ANY of your Holiday kits. These would also be perfect embellishments for gift tags.

Next, we have some very festive trees, all in the PNG format from Michelle Coleman.
Dana's Snowflakes:
CD's Woody Bits:
And some Fall paper from Dahlia Co., because after all, it is still Autumn!
Ok, here is a full kit that was just added to the Shoppe by Heidi Larsen. This is very unique in that it has not so typical elements like a recipe card and Holiday Letter template included. Two awesome ideas.
Are any of you font and alphabet collectors like I am? If so, here is the creative push you need to justify a few more purchases this season. Our talented designers created this eye candy just for YOU!

This is a long one FULL of creativity so read all the way to the bottom!
A creative use of calendar brushes to make a fridge calendar, by Christina:
Christina also wowed us with these custom jar labels and decorations for holiday gift giving. These enhancements certainly kick things up a notch. She explains her method below.
Next, another fabulous step by step by Michelle Filo demonstrating her mini calendar.
Here is the step by step:
Step 1. Create your layouts digitally using by clipping your favorite photos and digital papers to the shapes provided in the template.
Step 2. Print out your layouts. You can arrange them in one page or print individual 4x6 photos.
Step 3. Cut your layouts to shape, but just the sides and top part, do the bottom cut out AFTER you glue back and front pages together to make sure they will line up. Double sided tape or a snail type adhesive dispenser should be enough. After adhering back and front layouts, you can trim away any excess and do the cut out.
Step 4. Punch the holes.
Step 5. Create the stand. Just cut a strip of sturdy cardboard and make a triangle to the size of your calendar. (you can check step 4 and 5 of the 2009 Mini Calendar for more photos)
Step 6. Punch the holes for the cardboard stand. You can use one of your layouts as a guide to where you should be punching the holes, so you can keep your calendar centered in the stand.
Step 7. Last step is to add embellishments to your mini calendar (optional).
If you want to simplify, you can also use an acrylic frame to display each layout month by month:
Michelle's hybrid items are so well thought out and "easy peasy" to use, just like she says...and shows us!
And one more of Michelle's Hybrid projects, the gift card wallet, completed by Design Team member, Ginger.
And a sneak peek of an Advent calendar made by Rebecca Larson using Michelle Coleman's Holiday Jingle. Details to follow!
