KCC Blog Hop - Gift Giving Ideas



decblogbutton

Fair well to 2013 soon it will be 2014. It is that time of year gifts are being purchased and made, and it is always wonderful to receive a handmade gift, there are so many great things to give. Some can be expensive some may not. We all are here to give you ideas for all occasions that you may be giving to another.
I am your host today, Lissa here at So Many Crafts, So Litte Time. I hope you enjoy our hop we will go out with a bang and bring you new things next year.

Today I am showing some different gifts you can make using vinyl.



The first two metal signs were purchased at Hobby Lobby.  I simply added the phrases from the Silhouette Online Store that I cut out in black vinyl.  I tied a tulle bow to the wire on top.

These make great gifts especially to young couples who may not have a lot of decorations yet.  You can also personalize them with their names.

My third project today is:


I took a 12 x 12 black metal frame from Michaels and added a Christmas piece of scrapbook paper inside.  I cut the image (also from the Silhouette Online Store) and cut it out of black vinyl.  I applied the vinyl to the glass of the frame.

I love using these 12x12 frames for home decor!  Sometimes, I remove the backing and hot glue the glass to the inside of the frame.  I put the vinyl on the glass and the wall shows through.

And now, onto the Blog Candy!!!

For today's blog candy Lissa is giving away a $10.00 Gift certificate to anywhere you choose that she can purchase online and send the gift card to you online. Preferably you will choose Close to My Heart for a Studio J layout but this is the time to give and she would like to give what you like to receive so good luck to every new and old email follower (required to win the certificate) and commenter who comments on the hop, hoping you make an effort on all the blogs.
