As a coffee lover, I love this so much. I\u2019m actually drinking my second cup of the day as I put this post together. Fun fact \u2013 I didn\u2019t like coffee until I met my husband. I blame my late father-in-law for my addiction to bold coffee.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/Caffeine-Addict-KIT-by-Heather-Z-Scraps.html\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/HZ_caffeineaddict_kit-500x500.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>When I saw the preview for our December kit, I gasped.

If you miss pieces, the kit will be available for purchase on the first day of the following month.<\/p>\n<p>This month, we don\u2019t have just one designer guesting! We have TWO! How lucky are we? BUT! Before we get to that, we just got word that one of our previous guest designers is staying with us PERMANENTLY! Welcome to the TEAM!!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/Jumpstart-Designs\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0px currentcolor; display: inline; background-image: none;\" title=\"g00\" src=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/g00.jpg\" alt=\"g00\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" border=\"0\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Our first Guest Designer is Christie, of <a href=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/Scrappin-Serenity\">Scrappin Serenity<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/g01.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0px currentcolor; display: inline; background-image: none;\" title=\"g01\" src=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/g01_thumb.jpg\" alt=\"g01\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" border=\"0\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This is what she told us about herself:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Hey y&#8217;ll! I&#8217;m ChristieDawn (aka Scrappin Serenity). I&#8217;ve been married to my amazing husband, Michael, since 2005, and together we have 2 wild and witty kiddos, Haylie (who&#8217;s 12) and Hunter (who&#8217;s 11). We live just outside the Nashville, TN area. Most of my time is spent watching my kiddos in all their activities; Haylie plays catcher in softball and sings in the choir, and Hunter just started band (he plays percussion) and loves Gymnastics! When the kids aren&#8217;t keeping me busy, I scrapbook and design! I started scrap-booking just after Hunter was born and then started dipping my toes in designing shortly after that.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Here are just a few things available in her store:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/Scrappin-Serenity\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0px currentcolor; display: inline; background-image: none;\" title=\"g02\" src=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/g02.jpg\" alt=\"g02\" width=\"600\" height=\"691\" border=\"0\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/Scrappin-Serenity\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0px currentcolor; display: inline; background-image: none;\" title=\"g03\" src=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/g03.jpg\" alt=\"g03\" width=\"600\" height=\"691\" border=\"0\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/Scrappin-Serenity\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0px currentcolor; display: inline; background-image: none;\" title=\"g04\" src=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/g04.jpg\" alt=\"g04\" width=\"600\" height=\"691\" border=\"0\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>She even has a GREAT sale going on:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/Scrappin-Serenity\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0px currentcolor; display: inline; background-image: none;\" title=\"g05\" src=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/g05.jpg\" alt=\"g05\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" border=\"0\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Our second guest is just as awesome!

I&#8217;ve been creating templates, kits and other digital goodies for just over eight years now (hard to believe it&#8217;s been that long!). When I&#8217;m not designing I love to bake, read and spend time with family. We live in Minnesota and even though I&#8217;m not the biggest fan of our winters around here, I don&#8217;t think I could live anywhere else.<br \/>\nI used to have a shop here at Gingerscraps so I&#8217;m so excited to be returning for the month of December! Lots of fun things planned &#8211; I hope you&#8217;ll enjoy what I have in store for you!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>And this is just a snippet of what she has in her store:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/La-Belle-Vie-Design\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0px currentcolor; display: inline; background-image: none;\" title=\"g07\" src=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/g07.jpg\" alt=\"g07\" width=\"600\" height=\"492\" border=\"0\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/La-Belle-Vie-Design\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0px currentcolor; display: inline; background-image: none;\" title=\"g08\" src=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/g08.jpg\" alt=\"g08\" width=\"600\" height=\"492\" border=\"0\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/La-Belle-Vie-Design\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0px currentcolor; display: inline; background-image: none;\" title=\"g09\" src=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/g09.jpg\" alt=\"g09\" width=\"600\" height=\"492\" border=\"0\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Remember, if you complete 10 challenges, just ten, you get a free kit as well!!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/cr-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0px currentcolor; display: inline; background-image: none;\" title=\"cr\" src=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/cr_thumb-1.jpg\" alt=\"cr\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" border=\"0\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Anyone else craving Gingerbread, Hot Cocoa, and Candy Canes right now?<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-29160\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 15px;\" src=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/GS_footer_blog_Sarah_2019.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"575\" height=\"29\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/GS_footer_blog_Sarah_2019.jpg 575w, https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/GS_footer_blog_Sarah_2019-500x25.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 575px) 100vw, 575px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m too flabbergasted to really think of anything to put here.
