Packaging Christmas

It's down to the wire now... only 6 more days until Christmas. Not sure if it will all get done, but I'm slowly chipping away. Every year I make cookies for the neighbors and realized this year I forgot to buy tins to put them in. Luckily I have an endless supply of scrapbooking goodies, and was able to come up with this idea..

I just cut a piece of Echo Park Dots and Stripes Christmas to fit over the top of a lunch bag. I added a snowflake and some Twinery twine and DONE! The little birdie is new from Poppystamps.com and comes with a coordinating die... too cute!

Next up was all the gift cards for teachers and nieces and nephews (too hard to get them what they want anymore!) I hate to give just a gift card, it needs to be pretty so I came up with these ornament holders. I used the Echo Park Holly Jolly Ornament SVG from iDiecuts.com as the base and just sewed a half circle on the back to hold the card. I finished it off with some Twinery Twine and the dog tag Die namic from MFT.

OK, I'm off to finish my layout for the MFT Fan Club over at Right at Home and wrap presents. Laundry and dinner are on hold.
