Hey Everyone!! I hope you are all doing well, and things are getting back to normal after a great summer!! I am going to be doing a Craft Fair in November, so I have been working on different little projects, and I thought that I would share the first one with you guys, and so you could tell me what you think! This is a little gift bag that I will be putting a Hot Cocoa packet and a candy cane in, or a bag of popcorn and a candy cane in. I hope you like:
I started with a sheet of patterned Xmas paper that I had in stock, and it measured 6" x 12". I then scored at 3", 3-1/4", and 3-1/2" then I flipped it over and scored the same at the other end. I then folded it together, and glued it up the back, and across the bottom.
I then cut a 2-1/2", and a 5-1/2" white circle. I then cut the 5-1/2" circle in half, and glued it at the bottom, and then placed the 2-1/2" circle on top. I then cut the hat out of green card stock at 2-1/2"W x 2" tall, with the brim out of the same green at 1/2 w x 3-1/2 L.
I then stamped some of the faces of the snowmen with the Peachy Keen #520 Winter Face Assortment, and some of them I did with basic Googly Eyes, and cut out the nose with orange card stock, and decorated with crystals and buttons, and holly leaves cut out with a punch from EK Success, and Bakers Twine, and Snowflakes cut out with a Martha Stewart punch. I hope you like it! I would love to hear what you think! Karen♥
