This holiday season, 14 of us craft bloggers teamed up to bring you a wide selection of things to make celebrating the season.
Most of these are Holiday Cricut Crafts, but there are a few you can make without a cutting machine.
I love how “holiday season” covers the time from Thanksgiving to Christmas and Hannukah through the New Year. (At least in my mind!)
‘Tis the Season to Create Holiday Crafts with your Cricut!
Jen Swift is a talented artist; she literally wrote the book on engraving with a Cricut, and now teaches others to draw in Procreate on their iPads in her Facebook group.
She has drawn adorable gift tags for us and shows how to make them 3D.
Lucy creates all types of little houses and is a fellow paper and cardboard addict. She’s written books about how to make many different Halloween Houses and Simple Houses.
Lucy has created a whole Christmas Village that’s an Advent calendar. The adorable tiny houses even are designed so they fold up flat to store until next year! (You can see how small they are when you look at the Hershey’s kiss for scale.)
Nick (the Bearded Housewife) creates amazing cards for any holiday or celebration!
He’s doing a special “Holidays with the Housewife” event now that you should check out. He’s created a Christmas Church box card for us.

She has fun earrings for every occasion and shares all her tricks for cutting faux leather flawlessly. She’s created two different Hanukkah earrings designs.
