Candy Nativity

Here is our oh so cute candy nativity.  We made this with First Baptist's Kindergarten and first grade classes.  In the end I think we questioned our sanity in making these with such active kids.  Today I will be posting some of their finished projects.  This week I will be posing the pieces of the nativity and listing what we used.  On the last day I will post mine and a full list of what is needed ;)

One for each child, All  34 :)

 DONE, DONE, DONE!!!

Card Book

I had pinned a book like this last year.  Like many projects this year it sat on a shelf until last week.  I made a simple cover with my Cricut and SU! punches and used rings to hold my book together.  I used ribbon to make it a little more fun on the edges.  I hope to have one each year starting with our first Christmas!

Grandma


I know this is not creative but my grandma always did this with her cards, so I thought I would start it with the ones I did not hang this year.


Fun with Bows

I had so much fun making my own bows this year! It was a new adventure, but oh so fun!  They worked great and easy to pack and move to my parents on Christmas Day without getting there with a bunch of smashed bows :)
