I love to make gifts when ever I have a chance. I also love to make the package for them. I usually keep the supplies on hand so I can make one really fast. I’ve used them a lot for Weddings, Showers and Baby Gifts.

This is a sample of the box I made to put the gift in. I love the wheels because it is so fast to decorate the box and they look really cute. I used. 109688 Whimsy Jumbo Wheel $8.50 for this box. Then I just used a piece of paper from the Simply Scrapin’ Kit that I created the gift with. You could use any Simply Scrapin’ Kit or DSP. The one pictured here is an old one that is retired now.

The box is so easy to make. Just decide on your size and depth then score the sides to fit. Cut in on the score on just one side all the way around then fold and attach with mini glue dots or sticky strip. I always make the top box 1/16 bigger so they slide together nicely. Then the box is just finished with a belly band that slides off to open the gift.

This is the gift that I made to put in the box. It is using the same Simply Scrapin’ Kit. I’ve just cut it to fit on one of our on board book basics Large#110713 $7.95 for 4. I love this gift because it is so easy to create and you can change it for about any occasion. The picture part is sized perfectly for a 4×6 photo. Then you just put it on a plate rack holder and it’s a darling picture frame with lots of character.

Here is just another simple rub-on, but I love it. Sometimes I think we try to make things to complicated and need to remember that simple can be just as elegent. I love the white rub-on with the black and white photo.

If you can’t tell this is one of the very cute pictures of my little Xander when he was a baby.

All I’ve done is put the rub on directly onto the glass. If I were putting it into a scrapbook page I would put it directly onto the picture for the same effect. The nice thing about the glass is that I can change out the picture and still have the saying there.

Don’t you just love rub-ons. If you haven’t given them a try yet the I really encourage you to start today.

These are some of the last minute Christmas decorations I made for my tree. I actually made them on Christmas Eve. I waited to put most of the glass ornaments on until the last minute so that Xander (my one year old) wouldn’t get a hold of them.

They were really easy to make I just used the rub-on’s on the clear glass balls. I found that the smaller ones and the long ones were a lot easier to do. I did a couple of square sayings and they were difficult to get on without overlapping.

I was going through some of my Holiday Decorations and discovered these two great frames I made last year. I thought I would share them with you today since the background was so simple to make. I just used the Versa Mark with our Bold Snowflakes Jumbo Wheel.

I know it’s really hard to see but it looks great in person. I’ve added a close up shot so hopfully you will be able to see the effect. The are really fun to put out for the holidays.

I really like the big one because I can change out the picture when I want to.

I really wanted to try using one of the great snowflakes from the mini catalog on a project. I thought it would be fun to put it on a pictures frame. I really loved how this turned out. I have to admit the picture really helps too. This is my little Xander last year. We called him Xander Claus. The picture was taken by JC Penny Photography.
