Presents for my Demo

Well, I'm delivering this tonight so I thought I could finally upload it without her seeing it! You see, it is a gift for my Stampin' Up demo!! She has given me the opportunity to get involved with this awesome craft and I wanted to be sure to wish her the merriest Christmas with some gifts!!
I found 2 post it notes with her initial on it. They were blue and brown and were to initial inspiration for my entire gift package. I made the 2 post it note holders to put them in. See that brown polka dot paper -- it is the Au Chocolate paper from SU. But I wanted blue dots instead of the vanilla so I simply swiped my Soft Sky blue ink pad over the dots and it looks great once it is dry!!
Then I made the band and topper for the jar of home-made raspberry jam!! I decided to make a matching genie bag to put it all in.
But then, I saw the cool Criss Cross box that Nicole Heady created on her blog!! and I knew I wanted to make one to add to this gift package. As I indicated earlier, I made my box using my scaled down version and inside are a few Russell Stover chocolates.... YUM!!!
I certainly hope she likes all of it!! I know I had a lot of fun making all of it :-)
Thanks for visiting!!

Donelda - I love this paper, it is in our Summer Mini here in Oz. I love how you changed the colour of the polka dots. I'm going to copy coz I think that is just such a great thing to do. Thanks for sharing
