Day 5/Jerri Kay Jimenez – The 12 Days of a Clean & Simple Christmas

Good Friday evening! It’s officially the weekend and we have a wonderful project to get it started off right! Jerri Kay created a fabulous gift set for us using this year’s Christmas Collection by Graphic 45. And YES, Jerri Kay CAN do clean and simple work — for sure!  Nothing tedious here.  Jerri selected beautiful sheets of paper and accented them with Petaloo flowers and narrow silk ribbon. Then she made these darling little pillow boxes to match using the template that is included inside the cover of the Graphic 45 8×8 pad.  What a bonus!!!  There are also templates for a variety of tags included as well. And before I go any further, I do want to let you know that if you like this project, stay tuned for more. Jerri has made several more items that all coordinate with this gift set, and they’ll be popping up over the next couple weeks, so stay tuned for more! Take a look at these gorgeous sets:
