Christmas Crafting Fun ~ Day 14

Hello Crafty friends and welcome to Michelle's Crafty Creations.

Today's theme  AND weekly challenge is to make Holiday cards, tags and gifts, or other easy last minute ideas!!  Come on now....who doesn't wait to the last minute like me??  I hear about people finished with their shopping...whaaa???  I have barely started! LOL  Congrats to those already finished.  Perhaps the projects showcased at Cooking With Cricut will inspire you to dress your packages up or great ideas for gift tags!

I made sour cream containers.  I found the tutorial on Splitcoast Stampers.  They are SUPER easy and with some cute paper and embellies you can make them so adorable!!  I couldn't find my paper crimper (gosh....really could have used that too) but I did use my MS score board instead to crease the edges of the package to make it more secure!




The only way I could take a good picture was to put them on my mini tree outside! LOL

To Make this I used:

Cart ~ Christmas Cheer for the wreath and snowman face.  The wreath was the shadow and for the snowman face I used all the layers and hid the face with my Gypsy.
Paper ~ Mambi Christmas stacks
Misc. ~ McGill pine branch punch, bling from my stash, stickles, tombow glue and red sticky tape, white and black enamel for the snowman, pink chalk for the snowman cheeks and slight coloring of the face, MS glitter pen and gelly roll pens for coloring, Holly brad for snowman hat, jingle bell brad for wreath, ribbon from stash.

Check out all that is available for your chance to win for week 2!!
