Christmas Good Bags

After seeing Robyn - My Pink Stamper post her Christmas Goodie bags for her kids, I realized I should make some for my daughter.  My oldest is in Preschool, so this is the first year I've gotten to make some. This week, I helped at her school when they made Gingerbread houses. After realizing how much sugar they were going to have this week, I tried to come up with a different type of goodie bag (with less sugar).

So my goodie bags included a Christmas Pencil and pieces for them to make a Christmas Photo Ornament. I got enough supplies to make 20 of them from Micheal's for about $5. I made an example of each ornament and then took a picture. I wanted to show how the finished ones looked so I put it on the back. I edited it in Publisher using a shipping label template so I could make alot of them quickly.

Supplies
Stamps: A Child Is Born - Unity Stamp Company
Foam Ornaments & Pencils - Michael's

Then I made her teachers a post-it note holder and a recipe book.

The Lord is my Strength...

I purchased my first set of "Unity Stamp Co."  stamps at CHA. I love how well they stamp. They are the red rubber with just the black foam backing. Then I put it to my acrylic blocks and it stamps beautifully. This is a different style of card for me but I love how it turned out.



Supplies & Instructions
Stamps: Unity Stamp Co - Devoted
Cricut Cartridge: Wild Card - button #45 - 4.5"
Chalk: Pebbles
Ink: Martha Stewart
       Color Box - White
Embossing Powder & Ink: Versa Mark Watermark Ink & Clear Embossing Powder
Glossy Accents
Pen - Sakura Gelly Roll - White Pen

I used several techniques for this card. The base of the card I stamped the butterflies with a Versa Mark watermark ink and then embossed it with clear embossing powder. Then I colored the butterflies with Chalk. The sentiment I stamped with a Color Box white ink. But since White ink has a hard time drying I embossed it with clear embossing powder. Then I stamped the trees, accented with chalk, cut out the tree on the front and accented the leaves with Glossy Accents.
