Unscripted Sketches #237

Good morning!!  And welcome to another sketch challenge from Unscripted Sketches!

SK205 US237

I made a fun holder for cash!!!  My son is a freshman in college, and when we asked for a wish list, he said "cash"!!  So, this is what I came up with:

DSC_0003

It's tin, measuring 4" x 4", and about 3/4" deep.  I decorated the front with night of naby cardstock, stamped with the Festive Flurry stamp set!  Super simple!!  The letters were cut with my Big Shot, and layered onto the Silver Foil. 

Here are a couple others I made:

for my niece:

Gifts13d

Gifts13c

Gifts13b

and my nephew:

Gifts13a

Gifts13

These were fun to make, and hopefully, a fun way to get cash as a gift!

Now that all my gifts have been given, I can share with you some fun wrapping I did!!  These gift bags are for my neighbors:

I used the Festive Flurry and Joy to the World Stamp Sets.  Colors are Real Red, Midnight Muse and Marina Mist. 

Here's fun way to recylce:

DSC_0003

I simply stamped (same stamps, same colors as the gift bags) the snowflakes onto the brown paper bag!  You know, the one they package the bottles in when you purchase the wine?  I thought I had a nice wine-size gift bag, but I didn't!  So, I came up with this!  I think I like it better!  :-)

Come back on Saturday--I'll share a fun way to give cash for Christmas!!

Be sure to check out my SHOP tomorrow--there will be new items added to the Clearance Rack!!!

Nacho Average Challenge #69

Happy Christmas Eve!!!  I can't believe it's here already!  Even with all the hustle and bustle, I completely love the holiday season--and I get a bit sad when it finally gets here!  I don't want it to end! :-)  I guess I should just enjoy it while it's here!  Hope you're able to spend it with your loved ones!

Today's sketch is fun:

I did my card using My Digital Studio!

This is a CASE of Heidi's card that I found on Pinterest!  She did hers with My Digital Studio, but I stamped mine using the Lovely as a Tree set, in Chocolate Chip!  Easy, but elegant.
