Xyron and Doodlebug Blog Hop - Day Five and a Giveaway!

We don't like saying goodbye...especially this week when we've had such a great time with the Xyron/Doodlebug blog hop!  Thanks so much to the designers from both teams - we have really been inspired this week.  We've got one more round of crafty goodness to share with you today!
This Santa down the chimney card from Courtney Lee could not be any sweeter! The detailing on this card makes it a must-do this holiday season, and on her blog today Courtney gives us a tutorial so we can make our own!

We love dimension on our scrapbook layouts - and Viki Tiamat takes it to a whole new level with the Christmas tree on her scrapbook page! On her blog today she gives you some tips and tricks for making one of these for your next layout.

Christmas means gift giving - and handmade gifts are a lovely way to let someone know how special they are.  Sharon Callis shares a tutorial for creating this beautiful tray wall hanging on her blog today, and also put together a money wallet for the...ummm...more "practical" people in your life!  ;)

While we're at it...who says gift giving is just for Christmas?  On her blog today Ann Corbiere-Scott shares us one of the coolest ways we've seen of giving money as a gift - using a recycled container no less!  She also shows us how a themed collection (in this case - Happy Harvest) can be used for an every day project.  Thanks Ann!
