Great projects! I have wanted to try the glitter thing with some of my wine glasses and really appreciate that you did it more than one way and explained what you used. I have a few wine glasses I have stored away to try this. Thanks for sharing some great projects.

Now on with the projects!

I've got a great and easy (really it's 6 days until Christmas, we need easy!) 
last minute gift idea for you papercrafters out there.  

Even those who aren't papercrafters can make this gift with only a few supplies.

What you need:

1 boxed set of card blanks and envelopes 
(I used the Pearl Dots from Joann)

1 or 2 stamp sets 
(I actually used 3)

1 or more ink colors 
(I used Versa Fine black and Melon Mambo by Stampin' Up and Craft White)

Tags
(I used a variety of them, but you can use just one style)

Embellishments *totally optional, by why not!
(I used sequins and twine)

Some kind of adhesive/glue


For my sample today, I created 5 cards for my set, 
but you can do any number per set you'd like.



By making 5 or 6 in a set you can get 3 - 5 gifts out of one box of card blanks.

 Here are close-ups of each card and let me be honest, I am a papercrafter and I've got tons of supplies and tools and gadgets and "STUFF" so I did emboss with embossing powder and my heat gun  most of the sentiments.   






All 5 of these card blanks came in the same pack so there is a lot of opportunity for variety.  
You could create a set for each color, so all the white with white blanks go together as a gift set or like me you can mix and match. 

Have fun! 

Thanks for hopping by today, don't forget to leave a comment to be entered into
the drawing for the 5 great prizes. 

Happy Crafting & 
Merry Christmas

Next up is Kim.
