A year ago this past July we did a week long series on Christmas in July (if you would like to visit those posts again, scroll to the bottom of this post). This year, July snuck up on us, so we decided to wait until October and do Christmas in October 🙂
Over the next couple of weeks on Wednesdays, we will be sharing some fun Christmas gift ideas, projects and other cool things you can use your digital supplies to create. Today we are looking at gifts you can give (will be doing a different post for calendars 😉 ).
I think this Memory I Spy Shadowbox project would be easily recreated with little digital layouts (just measure the spaces and create the layouts to fit):
Team member Jenn created these canvases last year and had them printed at Canvas on Demand:
