HANDMADE CHRISTMAS THANK YOU GIFTS WITH CLOSE TO MY HEART YULETIDE CAROL AND HOLIDAY HAPPENINGS

 

Here are some more of my handmade Christmas gifts.

I came across these extraordinary large wooden pegs in a discount variety store

and thought other then them being big enough to hang my bloomers on the line with,

what else would I use them for ?

 

Well since I love my Close To My Heart products and much prefer crafting then

housework, I found a better use for them.

A paperclip with a magnet to either hang on your fridge or magnetic white board.

Using Mod Podge on the front and back of the wooden peg, I cut strips of

Yuletide Carol paper and adhered them to either side of the pegs.

Then using a glue gun adhered some magnets to the back of the pegs, again from the discount variety show.  Then using my Cricut Expressions V2 and the Close To My Heart Artiste cartridge cut out 6 roses for decoration.  Oh, did you know that the Holiday Happenings Assortment has two sheets of alphabet stickers in them ?  Perfect to make the words "Thank you" to put on my extra large pegs.

Then to seal the wood and the paper, I spray with a can of High Gloss finish sealer.

Now my Christmas Thank you gifts are sealed, dry and ready to post.

Hope you like them.

 Close to My Heart have made it so easy for me. I have bought her a Holiday Happenings My Crush book $AU24. This contains 30 – 8¼” × 6½” wire bound pages in a mix of styles: including printed vellum; printed, cardstock-weight; and page protectors in various styles with a Kraft hardcover with foil gold accent.

This needs very little embellishments but to go along with it and you could do really well with just the book, your photos and some glue and sticky tape. Despite this My Crush Holiday Happenings Assortment which is a bargain, For just $8 you get all this:

4 – 4″ × 6″ Cards
 8 – 3″ × 4″ Cards
18 – 2″ × 2″ Cards

And it compliments the Crush book beautifully in design and colours.
