Good morning, hope all is well with you!  First of, let me start by saying:  I’m so very sorry, this was supposed to go up yesterday and it was scheduled, but my computer seems to have eaten the whole post!!!  So, if you any of you couldn’t complete the hop because of me, I’m so very sorry!!!

So, the challenge this month is Two Or More Folds, and here is what I came up with:

The image is from All That Scraps, and the paper has been in my stash for a couple of years-hehe!

This month we are celebrating our first birthday over at Christmas Crafting-where has the time gone! Thanks to all of you who have taken part in the last 12 months and we hope we can count on you for your continued support.

If you have arrived here from Darcy’s then you are hopping in the right direction. If not then please return to the Christmas Crafting blog to start again.

All you have to do to be in with a chance of winning one of these fabulous prizes is to visit each blog in order, leaving a comment as you go, and then returning to the Christmas Crafting Challenge blog and leaving a final comment letting us know what you love about Christmas.
