Elf brand Cocoa handmade gift made using the Santa's Village Imagine cartridge

Hello, friends!

 Today I have another project made using the Santa's Village Imagine cartridge. One of the best things about this cartridge are the tags. I was able to simply print and cut out the 'to' and 'from' tag using the Imagine and just plain white cardstock. Then I printed out the label using Cricut printable vinyl (if you have an Imagine you need a boatload of this stuff because it is beyond fun!). Also, I took some white fabric and printed one of the patterned paper patterns on it! How cool is that?

The ribbon is papertrey Ink
I just added hot chocolate and marshmallows. Voila I have a gift for the neighbors!
 Thanks so much for stopping by today! Come check back in with me tomorrow!

November Specials:

November stamp of the month:


Holiday Wishes stamp set that is only $5 with a $25 stamp purchase.

When you place a minimum order of $25 in My Acrylix® stamp set starting today (until November 30th), you can purchase a new D-size Holiday Wishes stamp set for only $5! That’s significant savings off the full retail value of $17.95 US / $19.95 CAN. And here’s a bonus: many of the images in the set coordinate with our Cricut® Art Philosophy cartridge for added cutting and stamping fun! 
So to break it down, 
-If you spend $50 you get the November stamp of the month (retails price of $17.95) for $5.
-If you spend $25 in stamps, you get the Holidays Wishes stamp set (retail price $17.95) for $5!
-These two offers can be combined. For example, if you spend $25 in stamps and an additional $25 on anything else in the catalog you will get both stamp sets for a total of $10 ($5 per set).
You save $25.90! Which means the stamps practically pay for themselves!
*note* You MUST add discounted stamps to shopping cart when prompted by the system during checkout. Stamps cannot be added after the sale is complete and finalized. Also, adding the stamps to your cart BEFORE being prompted by this system will result in being charged full price for promotional stamps.
Have a terrific Thursday!

Good idea! Nice easy gift for teachers, mail person, paperboy, etc. I am giving baked goods to Drs this year. This looks like a great idea for the Basket-O-Goods.

I wish I had an Imagine but don't see it ever happening. Love your projects though.

I have a question, is there anyway to use the printable vinyl in a printer and use a cd in your computer then print a design to the printer? Anyone know??
