Get in the Christmas Spirit!

The Christmas Spirit and now is the perfect time to make thoselittle gifts to people...and here are a few that I have given out in the past couple weeks.  These are little treat tubes filled with festive colored M&M's.  I used our Mini stamps!  These are my new love right now.  The first one is Santa's Greetings.  I simple stamped it using a black stamp pad and colored it in with Cranberry & Pear markers.

Here is the little display I created using them.  Not the best pictures...but I gave most of them away before taking a good picture!  LOL  I gave these to everyone who attended my Holiday Extravaganza.

 And the one below is using our Tree Delights stamp.  They are fun and easy to make!

You can also make gift tags with them...

And gift cards too.  The one above I used some red sparkles that I had extra and used them all up!  YEA!  

And my last card is a 3 x 3 card that in a store would cost about $1.50 - $2.50 and I used scraps that I had, so maybe cost me 2 cents.  So make sure you pull out your scraps and these adorable stamps and get creating!

Decorate Your Thanksgiving Table...FAST!

I just saw on pinterest how you can take your washi tape from your scrapbooking supplies and use it on tea lights...so luckily I have a bunch of both washi tape and tea lights...LOL  so I grabbed some and wrapped them!  How fun is this!

This picture you can see them better.  For my "fall" scape I used our new Party Washi Tape.  How fun is this!

Here is a close up of them.  I love the wood grain one...looks like I cut a little tree down and put a candle in it.  LOL  

Then I decided if it is good enough for Thanksgiving...surely I could make some Christmas ones!  So out came my Sparkle & Shine Washi Tape and off I went.

These literally took me 5 minutes to make.

Here is a close up of my luminary.  It is made using our Artbooking Cartridge.  That one took a little longer to make (most of the time was getting the extra pieces off the Cricut mat!  LOL  

But they were fun to make and it adds a little homemade feel to my Thanksgiving table.  So get your washi tape out and whip some up!  But do it fast...Thanksgiving is almost here!  

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
