I am so sorry to see the end of your Christmas projects and thank you for sharing - I have really, REALLY enjoyed them. BUT so very excited to hear that you and your teammates will be bringing us more ideas! Yippee skippee! Thank you and Merry Christmas to all!

Awww Lee!!!!
I signed up for your Countdown newsletter when Sandi Mac Iver sent me an email about it but I never got any from you. I signed up with all of the designers and the only countdown newsletters I got were from Sandi and Carol Anne.
I just signed up for it again hoping to get this latest project.

I love your box tutorial - so very elegant. Today is my 56th Birthday - so maybe I might have a chance to win your blog candy - not holding my breath but one never knows.
Thank you for doing the Christmas Countdown - even though I wasn't able to get the PDF's of the projects - I sure have enjoyed seeing your projects.

Lee,

This has inspired me to decorate some plain boxes that were free with Christmas ornaments that I purchased. Hmmm . . . my mind is humming with possibilities!

Thanks,
JoAnn

Lee, this is just so beautiful! It is dramatic, elegant and Christmas-y all at the same time! I love what you've done with the ribbon, and the delicate texture of the ribbon plays nicely off the texture you've put on the box sides. The box is a keepsake all in itself! Thanks for sharing your beautiful ideas!
