The 12 Days of Christmas 2011, Days 1 and 2 + Video!

Hi everybody and welcome to my annual 12 Days of Christmas for 2011! From today until November 21, I will have inspirational projects for you from home decor to cards to Cricut projects to altered items to whatever. You will find it all here and I hope you're as excited about this series as I am bringing it to you!

Every day I will have a video tutorial for you and every day there will be a prize too!

THE RULES

1.  You must become a follower of my blog.

2.  You must leave a comment daily.

3.  You must put my 12 Days of Christmas Blog Badge on your blog. You can pick this up on the right sidebar with the code on my blog.

4.  Subscribe to Cindy TV.

5.  Please don't just follow me and leave comments to win prizes. That is in extremely poor taste and very rude. How would you feel if somebody did that to you? It makes you feel used and very hurt, so let's keep it fair and fun.

Today I have 2 projects to share with you. I had a little computer problem yesterday which held me up, like a nasty virus that somehow got by my McAfee. The first project is a Holiday Planner that you can also keep as a journal and the second project is a very clean and simple, yet beautiful card that's easily mass producible with dimension and embossing. I love the way my card turned out. You can customize it any way that you want with different colors. Mine is monochromatic so that I wouldn't have to change ink colors all of the time. I do plan on making more just like this using different colors with my card stock and ink.

I described the products that I used in the video for the Holiday Planner but for the Christmas Lights card, the products will be written under the photographs and video.

Don't forget to stop by to see me daily and I know that you'll love what you see! Be sure to tell your friends! Oh, and since there's 2 days today, that means I have 2 prizes! How are you up for winning a Papertrey Ink stamp set and a Stampin' Up! punch? Great! I have the 2008 Holiday Tag Collection and a 2-1/2" circle punch!

If you've participated in all 12 days, I will draw a name for the grand prize and are you ready for this?! It's the very hard to find and super cool Cricut Lite Jolly Holidays cartridge!

Here are some still photos of my projects and the video is below the pictures.

I'm so excited that you stopped by to visit me today and God bless you! Thank you so much for your support!
