Christmas in July Practical Scrappers Blog Hop!

             Welcome to Practical Scrappers July Blog Hop  

                                                     Christmas in July  

     We are having Christmas in July to give you a little inspiration because we know, that as crafters, those cards and decorations we choose to create don't suddenly appear in December but take time and planning... that and that it is 103 degrees out today so we are trying to "think cool"!
     I chose to make a wall hanging. As its large, I had to improvise on the background papers, using wrapping paper and contact paper. "Jesus" is made from gold ribbon sheets (remains of ribbon when rolls are filled and prior to cutting). The snowflakes and chains are from tree trimming garland.  The rest is scraps from the stash... truly "practical" scrapping.

I hope you've gotten inspired to scrap for the holidays.  Here's the whole blog hop so you don't miss a thing!
