Im doing my first christmas fair on Thursday evening and am really worried everyone will have the same type of items as me and these will look better -lol!! Also have so much more to do before I even get to the fair!

Good luck jcst, take a deep breath, you'll be fine. Even if you have similar things, there will be plenty of differences! Enjoy your evening!

A little gift box with 4 batteries and a little tag saying Gift Not Included

Love these Giggle, do you have a template for the box or did you buy them plain and decorate them?

Is it just the bottom bit or does it come with the lid? I've found these already made ones http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/shaker-boxes-x10-sizzix-die-cuts-acetate-winows-includ-/330491298783?pt=UK_Crafts_Cardmaking_Scrapbooking_DieCutting_Punches_EH&hash=item4cf2d103df#ht_522wt_825 which I think will be ok, but there is no lid

Thanks for this idea My two DS's are always nicking the batteries from the remote so this will make a great stocking filler and ensures they have spares and my remote may stay in batteries for slightly longer!

Giggle, that looks awesome You've inspired me for a way to present the batteries I've bought for the torches in the Christmas Eve hampers, thank you

Hi there everyone

Loving all the makes I have made a few items over the last week or so as I treated my self to a big shot but haven't been able to track down a "Not so expensive" label die which is hard lol
Here is my makes so far
Snowman soup
Snowballs - Imperial mints
Dog Treats - Bakers
Cat treats - Not sure who makes these as I brought them from HB (cheap)
Tree Decorations - ES Mints

Still have loads more to make as I have quite a large family and trying to sell them on FB as well (no going so well over charging )

Thanks for the inspiration everyone :T xx

Fingers crossed the link works

They are really good, I think I'm definitely going to treat myself to a die cutter in the new year, as I will do so much more.

I ration myself to £50 a year for 'big' craft purchases, so anything that isn't card stock etc. but may push the boat out.

This year I bought a couple of Martha Stewart punches and some circle punches.
In previous years I've bought some lovely Stamp Man Aspects of Design stamps, and some embossing powders.
