I am working on the final one! It is Christmas, and I am using authentique vintage Christmas line. So far I have squares with a tree, a wreath, present, the postage stamps paper a rosette and one stamped with Happy Holidays. I was thinking of making a felt stocking. What else can I use on the squares? Thanks! Like this? I am working on some. I hope to have several made for different holidays or seasons, and along with a frame, have a Christmas gift. I would love to see some if you have done this.  |

I haven't made one, but it's cute idea. I'd like to try one for Easter from card kit leftovers. Thanks for sharing.

I did this for fall one year. I punched fall colored paper and used some fall embellishments. Found the frame at the dollar store.  |

We did something similar a few years ago. I really liked it so I'll have to find it! Love the colors of the one you posted, even if it's not yours  |

Here is a quick photo I took with my phone just to remember the layout. I haven't attached the squares, but I am pleased with how it turned out.  |

I've never made one myself, but when I see these beautiful photos of them, I have to wonder why I've never done one!

they are fun! Helps use up supplies. I even used a brad on one of my squares and Making Memories rub on letters.

I haven't, but now I want to!
I'll admit I'm a little intimidated by the idea of all of the measuring it will take.
Does one start with the smallest square and then build out or the other way around?
Off to see if I can find a 'how to' video. And Pinterest for inspiration, of course!

I made the squares 2 inches and then matted them using my Perfect Layers to cut the mat at 1/16th. There is 9 squares, and the whole finished size is 9x9

I am on my last sampler, hooray! Anyway, it is Christmas using the Authentique Vintage Christmas line. I have made squares with a tree, rosette, wreath, present, ornament, stamped Happy Holidays, and the Christmas postal stamps paper. What else can I do? Was thinking of a stocking, but am drawing a blank for others |

thanks! I found a set of small Christmas lights (kinda like buttons) that might work too.
