Merry Christmas Hot Chocolate Treat

I saw a packet like this in the Craft Sale Kay Sha had on her site .... so many cute things. Go HERE and check out her blog. I used the Bashful Blue CS and Top Note Die sponged around the edges with Soft Suede Classic Ink. The Merry Christmas is a stamp from the Yuletide Christmas Stamp Set that Judy gave me. Stamped Whisper White with Brocade Blue Classic Ink and added some red berries with the Real Red Stampin' Write Pen. Punched it out with Scallop Oval Punch and sponged the edges with the Soft Suede. I added a packet of Swiss Miss Instant Chocolate, a Candy Cane, Hershey Kiss and some mini marshmallows in the bag for a treat. Perfect as a Christmas Eve treat while awaiting Santa's arrival!

Two Christmas Tags

I made a couple of little Christmas Tags with the Two Tags Bigz Die. I used the Merry Moments DSP and glued it onto chipboard and then ran it through the Big Shot. A bit of Soft Suede Ink for sponging and added the Sleigh being pulled by a horse using a stamp from the Yuletide Christmas Set, sponged around it in the Soft Suede and layered on to Real Red CS punched with the Oval Scallop Punch for one. The other one I used the Circle Scallop Punch with the Sweet Season Stamp that looks like a snowflake. I added a little glass brad from the pretties kit and mounted it with dimensionals to the long tag that had been sponged with the Soft Suede Classic Ink. I added the silver cord for tying onto packages or hangers if they're used as ornaments. Hope you stop by again soon. Hugs, Julia
