I don&#8217;t get to play with my scrap-booking lovelies as much as I used to but when given the opportunity I will scrapbook and make cards, tags, invitations and more for hours on end. I was thrilled when Katelyn asked me to be part of the Holiday Card blog post on <a href=\"https:\/\/marlybird.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Marly Bird&#8217;s<\/a> site. You may be wondering why well for me it was one more way for me to let you see a different side of me that you didn&#8217;t know about.<\/p>\n<p>Today I will be showing you a cool way to make your holiday cards with yarn. Are you excited? I know I am! It&#8217;s like being a little kid in the toy store. Shall we get started? Great! Lets get our supplies ready.<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #ff99cc;\"><strong>REQUIREMENTS<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><strong>Yarn<br \/>\n<\/strong>I used Red Hear Shimmer #4 100%, Snow; small amount.

I combined my love of crocheting, knitting, spinning yarn, caring for others, designing and dyeing, with my passion for business. My husband, Kevin, helps me run the business. We have 5 children, four dogs and 3 goats, who keeps us busy We enjoy interacting with all the awesome caring Crafters we have met along the way. We hope to continue doing this for a long time to come, with your support.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.americancrochet.com","https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/americancrochet"],"url":"https:\/\/www.americancrochet.com\/author\/admin\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.americancrochet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12497","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.americancrochet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.americancrochet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.americancrochet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.americancrochet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12497"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.americancrochet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12497\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":27588,"href":"https:\/\/www.americancrochet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12497\/revisions\/27588"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.americancrochet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12504"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.americancrochet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12497"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.americancrochet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12497"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.americancrochet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12497"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
