LOOPY LOOPY BOW - FLOWER

Hello everyone and happy Thursday....one a few more days until Christmas, well actually 10 days.............. but still that is around the corner....This time of the year is very busy for me...My hubby normally has loads of gifts to buy for his managers and we also like to give the people in his office a little something as well...nothing big, just something to let them know we love them....Soooooo recently I released a new LOOPY LOOPY BOW - FLOWER over at the Cafe and decided to add them to a few of the packages for his co-workers.............I LOVE LOVE LOVE how them came out...There is actually two different LOOPY LOOPY BOW - FLOWERS templates and they are SUPER EASY to make. I did one of each...there is one with holes in it and one without...I think I will next time make some out of fabric..The little tags on the packages are from the CHRISTMAS MINI WORDS....You can click here to see a video on how easy they are to put together...hugs

I've got VISIONS OF SUGARPLUMS TODAY................hehehehe.

Hello everyone welcome to day 2 of the VISIONS OF SUGARPLUMS blog hop hosted by the oh so talented Lori Hairston....
Today me and the following ladies: Mika, Jennifer, Ira, Christina and Lori have some fun Holiday projects to share with you........AND we got some fun prizes to...

I was sooooo excited when Lori asked me to join in on the fun cause I already knew I needed to make a whole bunch of Christmas goodie bags using items from the Cutting Cafe for my daughters friends and her and Ben's teachers...

I made a series of different boxes out of different papers...I was gonna do all of the different boxes in the same papers, BUT I opt in using different papers since they were going to both male and female.

First up is this LIFE SAVER BOX...it fits 4 packs of Life Savers perfectly. I also used the CHRISTMAS COLORED BASIC IMAGES.




Next is this PENCIL BOX...the teacher tag is from the SCHOOL MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU SET

Then we have this CANDY CANE BOX HOLDER....it will hold those regular size candy canes...I need to buy more to fill up the box...it also features a circle word tag from the CHRISTMAS COLORED BASIC IMAGES.

Next is this COOKIE HOLDER.....I think we may end up making a few of these for friends....I also used the HUGE MERRY CHRISTMAS CIRCLE WORD.


And finally is this CHRISTMAS MILK CARTON with a snowflake cut out...this set has several different Christmas cut-outs on it. The Let is snow tag is from the CHRISTMAS MINI WORDS.
