MTTCC Top 3 entries for Theme #37 Christmas music

 Wow! MTTCC #37 had 11 entries!!!

This is the Top 3 Picks Announcement for Theme #37 Christmas carols/songs/hymns!

It is with great honor and humility in awe of such talented craft artisans who submitted entries that it is my turn to select (Becca/DT member serving as manager). A couple of artists submitted twice which is awesome to see. It has been wonderful to have our participation numbers gradually increasing this past month. I hope everyone comes back for #38 and lets their crafty friends know about us. 

With some thoughtful consideration, the Top 3 for the Christmas carols/songs theme are:

in order of submission=

#3 = Liz Williams with "O Holy Night"

#8= Donna Walls with "It's Beginning to Look/Taste a Lot Like Christmas"

#11 = Chris with "Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow"

Cleverly creative Christmas music themed cards for #37. Thanks, gals!!!

************************************

Theme #38 will be launched in about 1 hour after this Top 3 post is published. So stay tuned. 

Our sister blog My Time To Craft challenge blog's current theme is vegetables. You could show summer produce, picnic or BBQ grilled veggie kabobs, harvest/Halloween pumpkins, Thanksgiving cornucopia filled with a mix of fruits, veggies, and nuts, etc. YOU know how to 'theme it up'!!! Just make sure to find time to craft and blog and post before next Thursday morning July 14th.
