Advent Calendar Window # 13

Welcome to the 13th Window of the LLC Advent Calendar :)
It's Elin with you, and today I want to show you another of my favourites from the LLC Store
 Lace Camille <3
Now I am most definitly one of those who use my share of laces when I'm crafting, and since I joined the LLC DT I am sure I must have used at least 5 metres of this one! It's so easy to combine with other decorations, its not too broad and it fiths great underneath smaller trims too.

...soooo today's candy is 2 metres of Lace Camille (33mm)

For your chance of winning, this is what you'll have to do:
1) Become a follower of this blog if you're not already
2) Post our Advent Blinkie in your Blog Sidebar. The html code can be found here.
3) Leave a comment on the blog post with your thoughts on the project.

...and now on to my project of the day! I have decorated a glass jar for my Christmas cookies:

 I have used the lovely Maja Design paper named Santa and the Tree from the "It's Christmas Time" collection. I punched with a Martha Stewart punch around the edges and added Lace Camille around the jar. The text strip is from one of Maja Design's papers. Then I wanted a touch of X-mas feeling, and for that the Burgundy Gingham Ribbon was perfect!

This wonderful Bark Heart is also one of my new favourites, it gives the project a "close to nature" or "down to Earth" feeling I really like!
Have to show you the top of the jar as well...
Here I have used a stamp from KOG and the paper is also from Maja Design, the name is Sparkle.

With love
- Elin
