Today, I want to give you some ideas for favors you can make for events
from welcoming someone to your neighborhood to end of the year teacher’s
gifts. The great thing about these
favors is you can easily make them using your paper scraps on hand.
The first item is a
book mark made using scrap chipboard, cardstock, and design paper that I had in
my stash and extra jumbo paper clips I purchased from Wal-Mart many years ago.
Wal-Mart does not carry the silver ones anymore; but, they have colored ones that
you can purchase for less than $3.00. I
think these are great gifts for teachers.
There are several tutorials on YouTube
that you can get more ideas for this project.
Now let me move on
to the sour cream containers. These are
fun and easy to make. There are also
several tutorials on YouTube
that you can check out. As you will see,
I embellished mine just a little bit different than the ones in most of the
videos. I spellbinder dies and a little ribbon for
embellishments. However, I did cut the
paper at 4 ¼ x 5 ½.
Lastly, the tea bag
or Ghirardelli candy holders were also made using my scraps. The use for these holders is endless. Like the other two projects, I have provided
a link for a tutorial
for this fast and easy project. The
embellishment options for this holder are endless. I put my spellbinders dies and Copic markers
work on the embellishment for these holders.
That’s all I have
for now. Thanks for stopping by to check
out my blog. May your life be filled
with many happy scrappy times!
