I don’t know about you but I am an avid reader.
I love reading and I am always looking for friends that read so we can talk about books and share them, too!
Well, Design Team Member Char Dobson created these super fun projects for us today and they are all about your very own Book Club. Move over Oprah!
Char used a mix of Core Essentials and Tim Holtz Adirondack and Distress collections and her Cricut, of course!

See that gorgeous tag? That is one of our tags from our Core Tag Collection in the Dark colors. And check out how Char stamped over the Basic Grey Core Impressions! What a great idea…add some ink to the edges and you have a fabulous invite.

Today we have some gorgeous projects from Design Team Member Char Dobson. Char used the fun Nordic Holiday Collection from BasicGrey. You MUST pick up this collection for all of your Holiday needs. Char used both the Whimsy and Ornate Core Impressions collections. The BOTH mix beautifully with this line.

The non-traditional colors of this layout is awesome!
That Black Core Impressions just pops of the page, doesn’t it?

I seriously think that circles are my favorite shape. Everyone needs a gift bag this time of year, right???

Have a great week and keep commenting to win!
