November Craft Night - Getting Ready For The Holidays

I know a lot of you are still working on Halloween costumes for your kids, but I couldn't resist putting together these projects for our November Craft Night.  Close To My Heart has come out with some fun new items just for the holidays!

November Craft Night:
Date: Friday November 15th

Place: My Home
Projects: Reusable Gift Tags, Medium Gift Bags w/tags, Fabric Gift Bags w/tags, and Christmas Cards.  Pricing and details below.

Reusable tags:  What makes these reusable? They are made with a special chalk paper.  You can write on them with chalk and then erase when the holiday is over.  You can also use our chalk marker to make the names permanent and reuse year after year.  Each one comes with 6 inches of twine. The cost is $10.00 for a set of 12.  Add a permanent chalk marker for only $2.00 more.

 

Medium Gift Bags:  These bags measure 10 inches tall and 8 inches wide with each bag front decorated and includes a tag and tissue paper.  Cost is $11.00 for a set of 5.

Art Philosophy Ghost

 

I saw these ghosts people were making cutting cardstock by hand and I remembered a spiral Cricut cut on the Art Philosophy cartridge.  It is actually used to make a 3D flower but it worked out perfect to make an instant ghost!  Using the same cartridge I cut out an "O" shape and cut it in half for his smile, then cut the negative space in half in an arch to make his eyes.  I punched a small hole in the top and used some natural bakers twine to hang from the ceiling.

I used:
Z1686 Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge (page 70, I cut it as large as I could.  I believe it was 11 1/2)
1385 White Cardstock
1386 Black Cardstock
Z1701 Natural Bakers Twine
