Christmas gifts for teachers and friends

 I wanted to post these real quick since Christmas is over I'm sure no one is interested but I thought they were cute and turned out great. I saw this little saying on Pinterest and decided to go with it after I found these cute scissors at walmart for 2 bucks. I figured since I was doing a lot of them it would be the most cost efficient gift this year. The kids teachers all got one and LOVED them, as well as many friends. So here you go...

Merry and Joy Letters -embellished day 4... this is it!

 So here are the last of all the letters I have done. I hope you enjoyed seeing different variations of what you can do with the same letters. If you would like to see the other click HERE, HERE or HERE :)

 These are a bit different, I didn't have any more cut out letters and someone wanted a set of JOY to match the MERRY above so I made them on wood blocks instead and just used the same paper as I had with the MERRY letters! I used Alphalicious for the letters and cut them at 4 on white cardstock.

Merry and Joy Letters -embellished

 Here are 2 more sets that I made like yesterday's post HERE. These ones use all Close To My Heart products and can be found HERE. Buttons and green ribbon are both in the kit. The white thread with the sparkles and the little bells are NOT in the kit. You can also buy just the paper pack without the extras HERE

 Here are the JOY letters

Merry Letters- embellished

 These are some awesome paper mache letters I found a while back. I got some because I have always had good luck selling them at the craft fair so I thought I would try it again, it proved to be very worth it because when people picked them up they couldn't believe how light they were. All I did was give them 2 coats of white craft paint then I picked out my papers and got to work. I also added some super cute tiny bells with the fun crochet thread I found and made some faux snowflakes by wrapping the thread around my fingers about 8 times then tied it in the middle and snipped the edges. This paper is from Joann's from 2009 called Peppermint Forest.
