Joy Banner and a Christmas Stocking

I made a paper joy banner to go on the shutters on my mantle , this is a very simple little banner but looks cute on the shutters next to my Scottish Santa I picked up a few years ago. I am very into my Scottish heritage and this santa had to go home with me along with some Scottish nutcrackers that I just love LOL.

I have been making so many stockings this year my 3 year old decided she needed a new "Socky" like some of the ones I made for a girlfriends kids. She carried me this santa fabric and declared it was hers so I finished it up yesterday and she is in love! This is the first year she is really understanding Christmas and has declared every night for a week it is Santa night. She is still a little young yet to understand the true meaning of Christmas but she knows there are gonna be presents, too much fun!
