MCCR Snowmen Gifts


Here are some gift bags I made for my hubbies co workers. I made these candy bags to go with their gifts. I cut the snowmen from Doodlecharms. These were at 2 1/2 inches and I added Peachy Keen Faces.  The topper is made from Jaded Blossom Fancy Die. The paper used is from Recollections Home for the Holidays paper stack. 
Here are the gift bags I made :) 
 These cute snowmen are the same but cut at 4 inches. I used Peachy Keen Faces on these also. I added brads for the buttons. Every snowman needs a scarf so I added a twine scarf.
They are so cute! I love snowmen though so I may be biased. Head on over to My Cricut Craft Room and see the other projects.


Christmas Ornaments in Cute Boxes

   I made these personalized ornaments for my hubbies coworkers. I love this box!
 I wish I would have had more time to decorate these boxes but they are awesome either way, This first one I used Jaded Blossom's Christmas Kisses on the front of this box. The sentiment on top is a Hero Arts stamp.
I used Vinyl and cut the names using SCAL. 
I am very excited about how these came out and was so happy to find this ornament box cut files made by Samantha Walker. You can find it here. I also order the cupcake box for those to come :)
If you haven't made glitter ornaments yet they are super easy! You put in some floor wax to coat the ornament then added in the fine glitter.

Grinch Pills Jar

Here is another way I did my Grinch pills this year. So simple.
I used the same grinch picture as my bags and added the poem on with some twine. So simple and cute!

Rudolph Spares Jar

 So if you are anything like me you keep all your glass jars because you "will do something with them" Well my collection has gotten rather large so I am trying to use them up this Christmas. Here is one thing I did with them.
Instead of M&M's in a bag why not a jar? I think it came out super cute. I figure they can keep it on their desk for a chocolate fix. This super cute reindeer head is from KaDoodle Bugs Designs Rudy's Christmas. I just used the head from the cut out with the present.
Stop by later to see the other glass jar I made. Hint the M&M's are green on that one :)

Peachy Keen Gift Bags

 Here are two gift bags I decorated with Peachy Keen Stamps.
 This cute elf is a PKS. I love the little elf so I stamped him twice with different faces of course.

I cant remember which cart I cut the Season's Greetings maybe Joys of the Season.
This bag I cut the tree out from Christmas Cheer, I think, and added one of the Cornies faces. The lights are brads.

Gingerbread men card

 I love this card. It came out so cute.
 I cut these gingerbread men from Just Because Cricut cart. I decorated them with Peachy Keen faces. The label around it is from Gypsy Wanderings and I embossed it with a Christmas folder.
The sentiment is from  Gingerbread Kisses set by Punkin Patch.

The reason for the season is first and foremost Jesus! Without him hell would await us all.
Another big reason for the season for me is giving. I love to make things and donate etc. I made my coworkers little treats. Here are some of them I made.
I used Inspired Stamps 1.5 inch Circle Christmas set on an ornament cut out from Joys of the Seasons cartridge. 
 The topper was cut with Jaded Blossom's Fancy Topper Die. The kisses have little saying on the bottom of them from Christmas Kisses set also from Jaded Blossom.
