Thank You Gift Blog Hop!


I am so super excited to be part of this blog hop, with such talented ladies. These ladies on this hop are amazing. If you just came here, start the hop off  start at Joy's Blog I decided to make something that would last a while. My daughter is in 2nd grade and I thought I would make something the whole class could enjoy! So I made a countdown calendar, I made it with 14 days because my daughter has 14 kids in her class. I hope you all enjoy it. Here are the details, oh by the way don't forget to scroll down and enter for my giveaway! Thanks so much for hopping with us.








On with the details:
I used DCWV for all of the tags
Tags are cut at 2.5w and 3.25h
I used DCWV 12x24 paper
Ribbon from Michaels
Cricut cartridges:
Designers Calendar
Tags bags boxes and more
Gypsy wanderings for the pockets
I also used some K&Co cut outs
stickles
Some bling on the ribbon
really hope you enjoy this project it was really fun to make.
Have a wonderful day on to the giveaway!
