Fun & Fast Gifts

This month will be a flurry of activities
and crafting time may be very limited.
But if you would like to make a
few gifts that are small, simple, and
inexpensive these may inspire you.



Wedding Favors are super cute,
but don't have be used just for weddings.
In this case I've decorated the little
tin boxes with Christmas paper and punched
out matching circles to make the
tops of the bottle cap magnets.
My Cost: $5.99 for 17 tins
{Clearance at Michael's because one was missing.}
Regular Cost: $12-16.00

The CD Ornament is my favorite.
It's fast and super simple.
My Cost: 5 for $.49
{5 for $.49 Clearance at Target}
Regular Cost: 5 for $3.00

And the easiest of them all was the
Clipboard with two strips of paper and a
wonderful die cut using the Cricut Stretch
Your Imagination Cart.
My Cost: $1.00 each
{Michael's find during the summer}

Paper was simple too!
Totally usage 3 Sheets of paper
1 card stock, 2 pattern.
Total Projects completed 8.
3 Not shown they were used
as prizes for the CD class.

I hope this has inspired you all
in more ways than one with crafty
ideas and shopping methods :).

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays.
