Week #11 Challenge!

Welcome to Week 11 at The Paper Variety! Just a quick
shout out once more to Lynn for winning last week's sketch
challenge- Congrats Lynn! I also want to wish everyone a
Happy Thanksgiving tomorrow and safe travels this
weekend. My son and I will join my sister's family for dinner
and then relax at home with yummy leftovers this weekend :)

Now, onto the challenge...

-Sponsor-

Photobucket
Our challenge is all about the holidays, but let's rewind
back to summer for a moment as this week's prize
sponsored by Scrappy Jo's is all about fun warm days!

-Prize-

This collection of colorful scrappy supplies features
American Crafts "Heat Wave" and "City Park"! Is anyone
still trying to catch up on all those fun summer photos?
I am! :)
Be sure to join us this Friday when we share
more about Scrappy Jo's!

-Inspiration-

Check out these beautiful holiday gift wraps
from our awesome Design Team!

April
April did a fantastic job with this altered tin! I especially
love the gorgeous snowflake paper and pearls!


Sarah
Sarah went for the country motif with her gift bag and jar
using red, green and kraft - beautiful color combination
for the holidays! Love this patterned paper!


Tere
Tere created a gorgeous non-traditional holiday gift bag,
yet still capturing the season with her snowy birdcage
and "be merry" sentiment. Love those flowers!


Yara
Yara's gift bag, however, is all about a traditional Christmas!
Love the holly bunches and vintage Santa tag!


Suzanne
Suzanne joined our challenge this week with this super
cute gift bag. I love that punched border and how she used
the satin ribbon! Nice silhouette, too!


Abby
I created a gift bag using the BG Jovial collection and
added gems in various places to give some sparkle. I also
made a couple gift boxes for this challenge that you
can see on my blog.


Now it's your turn! Create a holiday gift bag/box or gift
wrapping and add it to the InLinkz below before Tuesday
at noon. A winner will be randomly chosen Tuesday evening
and will receive that super fun American Crafts collection
from Scrappy Jo's!! Try to add your project before
Sunday if you'd like a chance to be chosen
for a Submission Spotlight!

We're looking forward to seeing all your beautiful projects!
