Christmas Goodie Bags with a Window.( Recipiente Navidad Para Dulces con Ventana)

So, yesterday I went to bed at 2:30am making goodie bags for my grandson's Day Care. I woke up at 6:30am to finish them. Santiago woke up sick, and didn't go to school after all, so I kept his at home, and delivered the other ones to the children at Day Care.
 ** Ayer estuve hasta las 2:30 de la madrugada haciendo estas recipientes para dulces para el cuido de mi nietecito Santiago. El pobrecito se lavantó enfermo y no pudo ír, así que lleve los dulces a su cuido y guardé la de él en casa.**
 

The cartridge used was Santa's Village for Cricut Imagine. I placed a piece of clear cardstock to make the window. ** El cartucho es Santa's Village para la Cricut Imagine.**

The sentiment on the tag is from my stamp line ADORABLE, and it is from the FELICIDADES*mini* collection.

"First Christmas Together" clear ornament. (Primera Navidad Juntos)

Most of you know that my son Brandon is stationed in South Korea with the ARMY. Most of you also know that he married his High School sweetheart last summer. Guess what ??? He finally was able to get his wife to S Korea with him, exactly a month ago !!! :) Winters are extremely harsh there, and this is their first year celebrating Christmas away from their families. So, I thought I'd make a Christmas ornament, that will always remind them of their First Christmas Together in their new home, so far away.

I stamped the image on clear cardstock and colored it with Bic Mark It markers. Then, I sprayed a little glue inside the ornament and sprinkled some white glitter inside. I carefully rolled the stamped image to be able to insert it inside the glass ornament. I then added lots of white coarse glitter. After the cap was in place, I decorated the ornament with ribbon and bells. To document the year and place, I punched out circles to use as tags, and wrote down the info.

***** Esta adorno de Navidad, lo hice para mi hijo y su esposa. Están recién casados y les ha tocado irse a vivír a Korea del Sur, mientras mi hijo Brandon cumple con su trabajo en el ARMY.  Los inviernos allí son muy crudos y será la primer Navidad que pasen lejos de sus familias. Decidí hacerles un adorno, que les recuerde para siempre, esta primera Navidad juntos y dónde se encontraban.
Estampé la imágen en acetato y la coloreé con  Bic Mark It. Eché un poco de pega en "spray" y agregué escarcha blanca. Enrolle el acetato para colocarlo dentro de la bola de cristal. después de colocada la tapa, lo decoré con cintas y cascabeles. Añadí un "tag" con el nombre del lugar y el año.

This last picture says: "Our First Christmas Together" 2011. And yes, the package was full of Christmas goodies !!! As a matter of fact, there were two packages headed to their home in S Korea. LOL And I will be sending a third one this week. Oh well, you know ... Moms :) ....

Christmas Memories Ornament for Pink Cricut Ornament Exchange

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, everywhere I go !!!!! LOL And that is why, at PinkCricut, Sarah is having an Ornament Exchange.
My ornament is a "memory ornament"', because it has a pocket in which you can document the highlights of this Christmas, and even add a family picture. It will all stay safe inside the ornament, and next year, you can put it next to a new Christmas Memory Ornament, and that way create a new family tradition.

So, this is how to do it:

Cut a piece of chipboard that is 6 1/2 x 4 1/2 inches big. Cut 3 pieces of cardstock with the same dimensions. Cut a scalloped border to make a "roof".

From the Christmas cartridge (retired), cut the window shape: 2 on cardstock, and one on clear cardstock (or acetate). Stamp a greeting on the clear cardstock.

Cover both sides of the piece of cardstock with pattern paper. On the third piece of pattern paper, cut out a piece with a circle punch.Add scoring tape (1/8) to the sides and bottom of ornament, and carefully place your piece of pattern paper on it.

Stamp and cut an image, and affix it to the window's ''background'' cardstock. I used Joy To The World stamp set.

Glue a piece of golden ribbon to the top of the ornament. Add the "roof" and decorate with snow and glitter. Add a big bow and a bell.

Make a "faux stitch" with a white gel pen around the ornament. Add embellishments and trimming.

Cut 2 pieces of 6 x 4 inches cardstock. Insert in ornament pocket.

Hang your beautiful ornament from your Christmas tree. Don't forget to make another one next year, and the years to come. That way, you can pick up your ornaments and enjoy the memories of Christmas past. :)

Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas !!!!
