More Treats...

Hey, it's almost new year's - so of course the was a reason to make more treats:)

I had actually planned to make pillow boxes of treats for some my packages this year - even bought clear acetate sheets and then I had an aweful time working with it - finally gave up and right now I feel like throwing my pillow die away - any help/tips out there for me?!!

Mini Album in a Tin

I made this mini album for my inlaws for Christmas. I had started one for our family too, but didn't get it done in time for Christmas.

Friend's Birthday at Christmas

A dear friend has her birthday right before Christmas and she loves tea so it was a natural inspiration for this card & journal.

Tag Box

This was another tutorial on splitcoast that I made for a quick gift. I didn't have acetate at the time, so I used vellum.

File Folder Mini Album

I made this for a relative that I new would want all the latest pictures of our daughter:)

I started this back during the holiday tutorial blitz on splitcoast. Here's a link to the instructions.

Treats for my Hunny

Another set of treats - this time for my husband's stocking:)

I love my matchbox die:))

Treats for my Dolly

Couple of the treats I made for my daughter's stocking:)

Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas to each and everyone - may God's blessings be with you today and in the year ahead! Today's project is some garland ornament frames I made for and of my family - one of my greatest blessings:) (Almost all supplies came from that old Country Living Holiday Collection:))

Tag-folio

I used cellophane treat bags from the dollar store to make the pockets in this.

More Treats

I love this ribbon I found for half off at Michael's last week - everything else is from last year or the year before - I'm still bound and determined to use up my stash:)

Treats

Some treats I made for co-workers:)

Christmas Box

One of the presents I got a friend didn't come with a box and it was going to be hard to wrap without one - and since necessity is the mother of invention, I put this together (same idea as the tag box I posted with a link to instructions a couple of weeks ago:)

Ornamental Christmas Card 2

Here's another one I made from the same DSP (a pack from K&C from last year). On both today's card (and yesterday's) I did some embossing in the background:)

Ornamental Christmas Card

I was just playing with some old dsp I had:)

Cheer

I was inspired by Becky for this card...and as is becoming my theme this year, I made a few tags with scraps:)

Joyeux Noel

I've been playing with a pinkpaislee stampset from the mistletoe & co collection:)

Secret Santa, continued again...

...yet another day's gift - this one filled with chocolate!

In a previous post a few weeks ago I posted the last secret santa gift, a box filled with gift tags... hope she enjoys:)

Secret Santa, continued...

...another secret santa gift...this one, a journal..

Secret Santa

Every year at work we have a week of Secret Santa where we get someone's name and either give them gifts throughout the week or a big gift on Friday. I found a great Friday gift at a local giftshop called Creekside and decided to make some little gifts for the other days of the week. This snowflake ornament is one of them:)

Matching Gift Tags

In my last post, I told you that I was trying to use up Christmas supplies I had before buying new, so it seemed natural after making my card swap cards to use the scraps and make a few gift tags. I've put a few in with each of my swaps for fun this year:)
