I don't usually leave things to the last minute completely! Yes I am usually finishing things up at the last minute but not starting from scratch! So last night when I finished the reindeer food I still had to come up with a gift for Kaden's pre-school teacher Miss Jane! I try not to re-gift - my crazy family has this grab bag thing where we all bring our junk and play a game of trading it! So that's where most of my unwanted gifts go. So I had to create something! Then it came to me! Lauren Meader's MyTime Templates! The stocking one would be perfect!!!! So my creation began! It was soooooooooooo easy and worked really well other than It didn't want to stand up so much - might have been the amount of candy in it! Or maybe I should have but the box part lower for a lower center of gravity?!? Regardless it turned out super cute!
I printed the stocking page on some Basic Grey patterened paper - the collection I got at Mikes on Thanksgiving. I printed the other page the heel, toe, cuff and hanger on a green piece from the same collection. I cut out all the pieces and sponged the edges with some Tim Holtz distress ink. I also stamped JANE on the cuff using PTI's Trajan alphabet and made a little tag using PTI's Borders and Corners OVAL and sentiment from Believe. I wrote from Kaden on it. I added a poinsettia flower to adhere the hanger piece. It's from Making Memories - I really like it I need more! Filled it with YUMMY candy and there you go! SOOOO easy! Thanks Lauren!!!
