Here is another project I made using my A Merry Little Christmas set by JustRite Stampers. This little container is a metal tin that comes full of those powdered coffee mixes. Actually my hubby saved it and handed it to me - saying "I bet this would make a cute something"! I kinda laughed and set it aside. Then I was working on my projects for the JustRite Christmas Blog Hop, it was right there just waiting for me to make it cute!! LOL
I used some retired designer paper from Stampin' Up! and my Create a Flake 1 die templates from Spellbinders, to jazz it up. I cut/embossed a Scalloped Circle out of Riding Hood Red cardstock and then I stamped the Secret Santa Border. Then using repositionable tape I cut/embossed the circle. After I stamped the Santa Hat image, I colored it with my copic markers and carefully cut it out. Using some pop dots, I attached the santa hat and then added some Crystal Stickles.
I wrapped some ribbon around the outside of the plastic lid and covered the rest of the lid with some matching designer paper. This was actually pretty easy to make! You should be saving all those little containers to put a nice little gift in. It would save alot of money plus the gift is so special because you made it!!
Hope you have commented on my JustRite blog hop post HERE. I will be closing the blog candy give-away on Thursday, August 20 at 9 pm central! The winner will be announced Friday, August 21 at 9 am. Good luck and have a great day!
Oh, what a sweet hubby you have, Debbie!
And what an adorable little "something" you did come up with!!! Love it...
