Thank You Gifts Blog Hop!

Welcome to the "Thank You Gifts" Blog Hop

Hosted by the Lovely
Joy at http://www.joyslife.com/ and
Ruthie at http://www.septemberninth.blogspot.com/ :)

If you hopped to my blog from

Jin at http://www.underacherrytree.blogspot.com/ then you

are in the right place. If you just happened to stop

by and landed on this Awesome hop, I suggest you hop over to

Joy at http://www.joyslife.com/ and start from the beginning.

You won't want to miss anyone along the way.

For this Blog Hop, Joy thought it would

be great for everyone to come up

with a creative, inexpensive, and easy

holiday gift for a teacher, mail carrier,

bank teller, paper boy, etc...

I decided to create the packaging for the

inexpensive, easy holiday gift...You can

add a $5 gift card, yummy candy, a few cookies,

or whatever you would like

(as long as it fits)

I made this by using the Forever Young

cartridge and cut out the purse at 5.5 inches

I did this on my Gypsy and used the hide feature

function to hide the word that cuts out on the purse.

I cut accent paper to layer on the purse and used

a 1 inch Bell I cut out of the free Christmas Solutions 

cartridge (it was loaded on my Gypsy for registering).

As an extra, I punched out a boarder with my Fiskars

holiday holy punch. 

I placed a piece of velcro under the Bell for the closure

and finished it all off with a pretty holiday ribbon and

My Pink Stamper Rubber Stamps:)

Take a look...

used my Forever Young cartridge once before.
