12 Kits of Christmas - May 2012

 Are you ready for another edition of the 12 Kits of Christmas?  Just to refresh your memory, this is a group of 12 designers. Each has been assigned a month to provide the Christmas crafting supplies to the other 11 members. We all receive the same supplies and post our creations on the last day of every month. It's interesting to see how we all come up with something different with the same kit of supplies

Our hostess this month is Joyce from cards-by-the sea.  Joyce has stepped in and introduced our "First Kit of Hanukkah".   Chanukah, also spelled Hanukah, or Hanukkah, celebrates the rededication of the temple in Jerusalem.  It is also known as the festival of lights and is celebrated by lighting candles on a Menorah, playing dreidel, and of course opening presents!  I was excited to receive this kit because now I will be prepared for my Jewish friends this holiday season.


I am going to keep the rest of this post short because it is so photo heavy.  I don't know how or why, but since January I have been adding a card or tag each month.  May is no exception - I came up with 5 creations.  Here they are:
