Christmas dinner.....can you believe I'm thinking that far ahead??? Not only am I thinking that far ahead, but I've created that far ahead...so excited! I work in funny ways though, I may be done the table decor for my dinner on Saturday, but I haven't given any thought to the crafts I have to do in Nathan and Mark's class this week! Isn't that always the way???
So these little gems are made with the pillow box Big Shot die....cute, eh? I punched the front part of the box with the 2 1/2 inch circle punch. The rest of the supplies are as follows:
Basic Black - 5 1/2 x 1, 3/4 x 3/4, Itty Bitty Punch Pack Circle
Silver Glitter Paper - 1 1/4 x 1 1/4
These are as simple and cute as they appear.....making a whole whack of them took no time at all! Hope you like them!
Thanks so much for stopping by this morning! Remember to check back this afternoon to see Adam's cheesy little 12 days of Christmas gift!
Take care,
Heather

Cute idea!! thought at first you used toilet paper roles...sooooo glad to see you didn't!!! that would be beyond disgusting to use something that had been used in a bathroom & touched by people next to a toilet!!! it has been proven that waste from a toilet sprays all over the bathroom when a toilet is flushed...big yuck to use that, especially for eating utensils or near anything for food!!! I really can't imagine anybody would be that gross by using them!!! paper towel roles would be a MUCH better alternative!! :)
Ladies..

Simply beautiful! Thank you for sharing! Now since I don't have this die cut or any kind for that matter is there another way that I could make this? Could you measure out the dimensions to where I may be able to score it out of some paper?
Greetings Heather,
Question....you said you used the "Pill box Die" what is that...and what could i use if I could not get one? thanks for you time, Sandi
Love this! Since I don't have the die, we used tp tubes instead! Shared link here

Thanks Heather - I have already made a bunch. So cute! I changed it up a tiny bit - I punched out some Whisper White strips with the dotted ribbon punch to make the "fur" on Santa's coat.

At first glance I thought you had used a toilet paper tube. Im wondering if that would work? But very very cute idea
