Snow Man Soup

Image
Here are some cute little soup kits I made as gifts this year.  The snowman is altered from the "Christmas Cards" Cricut cartridge and I had several left over from last years Christmas card.  I was running down to the wire on getting these sent, so I needed a quick project and this fit the bill.  It was quick and very inexpensive.  You could actually give it all winter long.  Please enjoy the video.

Christmas Card 2011

Image
I am finally getting around to posting this year's Christmas card.  I know its a little late.  I saw a white on white card while blog hopping one day.  I had planned to do something else for this year's card, but when I saw this one, I quickly changed my mind.  The little pop of red is a great accent.  The sentiment on the inside can be seen on the video and was from a stamp I picked up from Hobby Lobby.  "Merry Christmas" is from K. Andrew Design's "Winter Wishes" set and can be found by clicking on the picture below. I trust you had a Merry Christmas.  Enjoy the video.

Merry Christmas

I want to wish you a very Merry Christmas!  I pray that the Christ of Christmas will have first place in your lives.

Sweet Christmas Treat Bags

Image
My plan for my co-worker's Christmas gift this year has been to make toffee and then make cute little headers for treat bags.  However, I am once again running out of time.  I decided to modify my original plan and this is the bag that I came up with. Supplies: Cellophane bag (4X6) Raffia ribbon from Joann's Peapod and Maraschino twine (from the Twinery) Small tags (I used Avery marking tags) Festive Berries distress ink Tools : Scissors K. Andrew Designs "Sweet Wishes" bonus set  (Go to www.kandrewdesigns.com to order these great stamps!) Tim Holtz ink applicator. Stamp image onto a plain white tag.  Ink around the edges.  Wrap your treat (I had home made toffee) in wax paper and tie with the twine.  Place in a cellophane bag.  Tie bag and attach the ribbon and tag to the bag using the twine. I made 48-50 of these little bags and it went together fairly quickly.  Thanks for stopping by.
