Top Five Christmas Crafts From Red Ted Art

I am MASSIVELY DELIGHTED to have the crafty genius Maggy from Red Ted Art posting for us today.  She is sharing with us five fabulous Christmas Crafts to get us all in the festive spirit.  Take it away Maggy...

We recently made these super cute Halloween Monster Cards and I thought perhaps it was time we thought about Christmas.  I know, I know, I literally start the countdown in October!

Next add some adhesive gems ...

Welcome!

Jbmumofone is written by me, jbmumofone, and this blog is my baby. Although clearly I didn’t think this name through because I’m now a mum of two actual babies.

I blog because I love to write, and for sanity’s sake, and have been blogging since August 2011. So why not dig on in and explore?
