Merry Christmas to all!
This will (sadly) be my last post with Heart 2 Heart Challenges. BUT I am confident that Haley will take the reins and keep you all busy creating in the New Year! And wait till you hear about the new DT! (That's all I'm going to say - wild horses won't drag any details out of me!! LOL)
I want to send out one last thank you to the current Design Team - you have all been wonderful! A big thank you to Haley and Shirley for stepping up and taking my place on H2H. I do want to mention though that I'll still be around - I'll just be in the background and not running the show. Call it an advisory capacity! I hope to play along once in awhile too :)
To everyone that has joined in on our challenges over the past few years, I thank you, too. We wouldn't still be here if it wasn't for YOU! Your creativity inspires us every day and I hope you will continue to play along, week after week.
If anyone feels the need to contact me personally, you can always reach me at mbryt1@bex.net. I will be spending time building my new business, continuing to be "crafty" (and hoping that a grandbaby is on the horizon in 2013). Those are the things I am looking forward to in the New Year! Whatever you hope for in the coming year, I wish you all happiness, peace and success and of course, a very Merry Christmas!
You are always Close To MY Heart!

We do have something new to share with you this week though - the November Top Ten selections! Here they are - congrats to our picks!

Christmas Week Number Four
Thanks so much for joining us here at H2H. This week's challenge is our fourth Christmas Challenge! It will be our last challenge of the month (as we will be taking a break until the new year to enjoy the holidays) and we would love to see your Christmas creations through the end of the month. Christmas is getting closer and closer, so amazingly fast! What crafty things are you doing to get ready for Christmas, are you working on cards, layouts or gifts? Whatever it is, let your inspiration run wild and get crafty! So get your Christmas Craft on and share, share, share.
To offer a little inspiration, here are the creations of our Design Team A here at H2H.
We hope we have inspired you with our Christmas projects this week! We’d love to see all of your Holiday creations here too! Here's how to join in this week's challenge:
- Use mostly Close To My Heart products, though it doesn't have to be 100%.
- Create your Christmas/Holiday project.
- Post your project to your blog or other online gallery.
- Come back here and directly link to your blog post, not your blog home page.
- Mention Heart 2 Heart somewhere in your blog post indicating that you are playing along with us and link to our site.
- Consider adding the H2H badge to your blog. We'd love to spread the word and see more crafters participating!
- Finally, you have the whole month of November to join us on any of our November challenges and be eligible for our Top Ten!
Just a reminder - link to the specific page your artwork is on - if we go to your blog and it's not at the top, we have a hard time looking for your entry. Thank you.
Happy crafting!

Before we get to the inspiration, we also want to send out a big thank you to our Guest DT of November, Alyson! Thanks for hanging out with us this past month! There is no Guest DT for December as we have a short month (taking a little break over the holidays) but a new Guest DT will be back for January!
