Gifts Galore

 Hello friends,

Somehow, I realized late last evening that I never shared the November Paper Pumpkin kit with you.  So, without letting another day pass, let's take a look at this fantastic kit!  

We knew before it arrived that it would have something to do with gift packaging.  And it sure does!  The kit makes 9 treat holders, 3 of each design shown below.

The front and back of each treat holder are the same.  In the middle is a little "basket" where the giver can place the food safe bag filled with treats.  I used Lindor Truffles in my bags.  The little baskets are big enough to hold a liquid soap from Bath & Body Works.  They're really adorable - I'm so glad I got an extra of this kit.

However, in case treat holders are not your thing, I made a couple alternatives.  The first is a cute snowman card.

The second alternative is a gift card holder.  I've included images of the front and back.

The front is the cute decorated tree image.  I added a Baker's Twine bow to the top of the tree and Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels to each of the red baubles on the tree.

The back side shows the traditional gift card holder I've made before.  You can see them here.  I added Dimensionals to the belly band to attach to the tree.  

Subscriptions for the December kit are open through December 10.  What do we know about that kit?  Take a look.

What’s not to “loaf” about a punny joke? It never hurts to have a little laughter, light-heartedness, and humor sprinkled into your schedule. If you’re a fan of fun, get a kick out of clever crafts, and can’t keep it together when you hear a classic knee-slapper, you’ll go bananas over this month’s cute ‘n’ quirky kit!
