Wrap Up the Holidays with Creations by AR - Day One

Happy December!


Welcome to Day One of  'Eight Days of  Wrap Up the Holidays with Creations by AR'!
We are showcasing the FOUR new releases for December, and they are wonderful!  Each designer has one day to showcase our favorite templates.  Some will create with all of the new templates, others with one or two. 

I chose to work with the 'Triangle Compact', and the 'Our House Gift Tag'.
I hope you enjoy!  There will be one winner per day, so be sure to read the information below!

Triangle Compact

Now, seriously, this was SO easy, and SO much fun!  Those of you with cutting machines could whip one out in 5-10 minutes.  It took me about 15 min. each after printing the templates.
Cardstock: amuse studio, Holly Leaves: Close to My Heart, Warmest Wishes: amuse studio, Merry Christmas: Close to My Heart, Poinsettia: Dee's Distinctively
 




Our House Gift Tag

This was SO much fun!  Almost like decorating my house!  Please enlarge to see all of the fun dimensions!

Here's a shot from the side.  I wanted you to see what a fun, dimensional tag this is. 

How can YOU win one of these two templates?
EASY!  
Just leave a comment below, telling me which template you would like to win.
A winner will be randomly chosen, and that winner will be posted on my blog tomorrow!
If you are the lucky winner, just email Adela at: creationsbyar@sbcglobal.net  
That's it!  
Check back with my blog tomorrow to see if you are a winner!  
Also, tomorrow, you will hop to Jak's blog, and repeat the process!

Thanks for stopping by, and have a great week!

Patti J.

Happy Thanksgiving (belatedly), Patty. I always enjoy seeing your projects. The Tag is magnificent with all the fussy cutting and decorations. I'd be happy to win any of Adela's templates, but of these 2 on your site, I'd say the gift tag--love all the dimension.

Fab projects & the triangle box is unusual. Love the dimension of the tag too.
