Christmas Gifts with the Big Shot

A few weeks back....it was just before Thanksgiving....I made up a few of these packages as gifts. There are sets of 4 coasters inside the box....and they were created with my Big Shot! I found the sparkly red and plain white felt at a craft store....don't they look festive? To create the simple coasters, each one was created by cutting out 5"x5" squares. I ironed a slightly smaller square of the Big Shot Adhesive Roll in between 2 scallop rounds. Then put each completed sandwich into the Big Shot with the Scallop Circle Die. The snowflakes was created by using just 1 layer of simple white felt, the Big Shot Adhesive Roll and the Snowflake Die. How easy, right?!!


The box bottom, which I know you cannot see well, was rolled with the now retired Bold Snowflakes Jumbo Wheel and Real Red ink......it just matched so perfectly, that I HAD to use that wheel!!
A clear window sheet was used to create the box top....it's just held together with Mini Glue Dots. That cute little tag was made with Real Red CS, the Simple Snowflake single stamp in Real Red ink, and the Snowflake Punch. Add in a little dazzle in the center with a Basic Rhinestone (LOVE those!!), and trim the edge with the Eyelet Border Punch and there it is! Not sure who will be getting these sets, but they'll be good to have on hand for those "just in case" gifts...hopefully, the recipients will like them!
