Baby Gift Set

This was really fun to make. The box is made with coasters from Chilies and my bind it all. All the images are stamps from a great company called Paper Trey Ink. Love all their stamps!! These just came today and I couldn't wait to play!

Hot Cocoa Jars

These jars are really easy and fun to make. I bought some used mason jars, washed them and then altered them. I used alot of scrap paper I had which is always great. The snowflakes are cut with my Cuttlebug die and the ornaments are cut from the Cricut Christmas Cheer. I added some ribbon and of course some sparkle with stickles, I just love that stuff! The finished jars can be filled with anything for a gift...candy, nuts, mixes. If you do a search for jar mixes as a gift a ton of results will come up. For these I am doing Hot Cocoa Mix. I found a great recipe that tastes good and is inexpensive to mix up. Enjoy!

Hot Cocoa Mix Recipe
