Grab your glittery pens, get your playlist ready, and create your own ornaments, puzzle purses, chatterboxes, gift tags, and more!

Instructions for folding Christmas tree ornaments, mini gift boxes, and personalized envelopes, and other nostalgic crafts are included.

The bleed-proof, bright white paper stock is heavy enough to use pencils, pens, or markers and light enough to fold easily into desired shapes.

From the creative studio of Ann-Margret Hovsepian, one of the illustrators who contributed to the bestselling Whatever Is Lovely, Choose Joy, and Peace, Be Still coloring books, Christmas Cheer is sure to become a holiday favorite for the whole family!
