THANK YOU GIFTS BLOG HOP

Welcome Holiday Hoppers! I am the last stop on this awesome Thank You Gift blog hop hosted by Joy over at Joy's Life.com. What an awesome idea!

So if you are on the right trail you have just hopped over here from Tracy's blog. If not, then check her out and then come back. Or you can start at the very beginning with Joy.

So I had extreme technical difficulties and had to be creative with what I was going to share on this hop. This video is actually the type of project I created for this hop but not the actual project. My Flip camera is having issues today and I couldn't film the new video to save my life! So I went back into my "video archives" and pulled up this video. Let me tell you that I use these cards as gifts year after year and they make THE BEST gifts for teachers, friends and family. Just change up the saying that you print on the cards and you have an awesome gift!

If and when I get my Flip camera to record without failing me :( I will post the video later. In the mean time, be inspired by all the awesome projects you've hopped through and have a beautiful holiday with your friends and family.

Oh wait, what would a blog hop be without BLOG CANDY?!? So leave me a comment below along with a way to contact you and I will choose a winner for a $10 gift card to Joann's Fabrics (if you don't have a Joann's in your town, then a Michaels card).

Much Love,

Yolanda
