Xmas gag gift

My cousin ended up with the gift I made and had a little fun with it lol.

Christmas Gag Gift

My family has decided to have a $5.00 brown bag exchange, as well as, drawing names.  Everyone gets a gift for $5.00, wraps it, before it is put under the tree, my aunt will put all the gifts in a big brown grocery bag, so nobody knows whose is whose.  We draw numbers, 1st person picks gift and opens it, 2nd person can take 1st gift or choose another one and so on and so forth.  This year I've decided to add a little extra something to the $5.00 gift I purchased.  HO HO HO Merry Christmas everyone!

Steampunk Charms

One of the ladies in my groups had joined a Steampunk Charm swap, when se received her envelope of returns, the envie was open and empty (horrible).  Our wonderful hostess, Claudine Criner, asked for volunteers to get some charms out to her for a replacement.  Here are 5 that I whipped up and am mailing out to her today.  I am hoping this brings a smile to her face and doesn't discourage her from future swaps as the charms I received from her were lovely.

Bracelets

I have been making jewelry for awhile now, so I decided to make some bracelets for everyone in a Santa Swap that I hosted.  I added them to a little stocking before mailing.   Sorry for the bad pics as I had to take them with my phone.

Christmas Tags & TP Album

This time of year is so busy for everyone it seems.  I have been lacking in my posts, so here are several creations that I have done since last post.

Christmas Tags for a swap

Christmas album I made from Toilet paper rolls with tags.  This is going to a secret partner for Secret Santa swap that I hosted, hope she likes it.

  

Christmas Ornaments

Couple of Christmas ornaments that I did.  First attempt at making ornaments and I'm really excited with how they turned out.  Both were painted with acrylics then embossed with UTEE and some glitter was added to make it a little more festive.  The trunk on the Xmas tree is Flower Soft (I think there might be another name for it).  Hope my partner likes them as much as I do.
