Edited: I've included this in the current Just Add Ink challenge but forgot to read the rules properly before I linked it! Whoops.
Today marks the end of kindergarten for the Davidson children. Over the past 5 years (Josh did 3 year old kinder as well as 4 year old) we've had countless artworks come home, excursions/incursions and lots of friends made. These are the gifts (and boxes)I made for the kinder teachers (and what the school teachers are also receiving). Each decoration has a photo of the kids with their name and the year written on the back (in their handwriting).
I used a bunch of supplies I had in my stash except for the jump rings I had to go out and buy... Bah!
Box on it's own

If any family are reading... STOP NOW.
Family will be getting a variation on this decoration instead of a Christmas card as I never make cards for immediate family. I'll be using the photo I sent with all my Christmas cards.
Supplies used:
Cardstock: Whisper white, basic black
DSP: Retired redish papers
Punches: 1 1/4" square, scallop edge border, round tab
Big shot: Tasteful trim die, big shot machine
Accessories: Organza ribbon (retired), real red 1/8" taffeta ribbon, silver glimmer paper
Fantastic - great little teacher parcels. And beautiful kids too. Chantell

Great gift idea. I like how you have decorated it to look like Santa's suit. Thanks for playing at Just Add Ink.

Your santa belly box/bags are great Ros, such a cute idea and love your ornament bells, a lovely personal gift.
Gorgeous family pics too.
Sorry this is after the challenge, for some reason it wouldn't let me leave you a comment last week, so better late than never..:0)
