Christmas in July Blog Hop 7/22 – 7/25


Front cover of the finished album
Page 2 and 3

     Welcome to my first ever Memories in Tyme Christmas in July blog hop!!!   After going to my first blog hop recently, I knew I needed to host my own hop this month for people to start to look at Christmas!  The economy is hard right now, what better way to save money by making wonderful things for your friends and family instead of spending a ton of money you don’t have!  Plus if you spend a bit of time and money each month, things will not be so hard at the end!  Everyone has been working really hard on things this month, and we all hope you enjoy all the fun ideas we are sharing with you!! 
     This is the beginning of the hop,  so if you are starting here - make sure to check out everyone else's projects and blogs!

     Now for the totally fun part – I will be giving away a $25 gift card to use at any store to one person…  In order to be eligible for the drawing, you must do the following: 
  1. Leave a comment on every blog on the hop for each day.
  2. Become a follower of each of the ladies on the blog hop.
     Winner will then be chosen from all the comments from followers from the entire event.  Thanks for being a part of this fun blog hop – I hope you have had as much fun as we have had in doing it!  Now for the fun part - the idea for the day!
