"Berry Christmas" Coffee Gift Baskets


I've been absolutely in love with all of the tiny coffee cups on Pinterest.  I finally ordered some and decided to make some little gift baskets with the berry baskets I found on clearance at Michaels.


So, my little basket is decorated with a die cut doily and pretty paper bow.  Inside the basket you will find a set of two peppermint patties and the tiny cup decorated with images from Papertrey Ink's Tiny Christmas Treats.  In the little cup, I stuck a K-Cup inside to get the party started!


I thought they would be great to add a gift card to the basket as well.  I've always like the light blue and red color combination.  With the snowman, you could use this a winter birthday present or just a way to keep your bff warm!


Great, easy, and fun Secret Santa gifts, especially for your co-workers!


Supplies:
Stamps:  Dandelion Designs-Sweet Christmas Wishes; Papertrey Ink-Tiny Treats Christmas
Ink:  Versafine, Papertrey Ink
Paper:  Papertrey Ink, Recollections, Bazzill

Mini Mason Jars


Last weekend I sold some of my homemade goodies at craft fair with my sister, Laura, and our Mom.   Laura and I decided that we would do Secret Santa and stocking stuffer type crafts to make/sell.  Mom brought some of her knitted hats and other handmade knit items that she made in her knitting group.  It was about 80 degrees that day, so guess who sold the most!  Our Mom with her knitted hats!   We had a really good time and ate some really good fair food.

 I found these mini mason jars at Michaels (last summer!) and I finally got around to "tricking" them up.  I used a variety of paper punches to make this happy little snowman.  I used the Cuttlebug Snowflake embossing folder to give the tag a little dimension.  Of course, I had to fill it up with some candy!


Here they are all in a row!
