Welcome to the Be Inspired Blog Hop!

This month’s theme is….Holiday Creations! I had yet to use my Cherish the Season Bundle so I decided to take it out of it’s wrapping and put it to good use. I love the holiday’s because that means buffalo plaid will be everywhere.  I love buffalo plaid, so decided to pair the bells from the Sounds of the Season Dies with the Buffalo Check Background Stamp.
