Happy Wednesday friends!! It’s just a little over a week before Christmas! Are you done shopping for presents? If you’re like me, you’re still trying to squeeze in some last-minute shopping here and there and just hoping and hoping you get everything done.
If you’re still trying to find that perfect gift for someone, well, read on and I hope something here inspires you today. Here are some Christmas ideas and gifts you can make using what is readily available to you - your digiscrapping supplies.
First, here is Amber’s Advent calendar that she made using a cookie sheet and some magnets, then embellished it with chipboard letters, ribbon and glitter.

Here are some gifts I’ve made the past few years. Most of these are very simple to make. I designed a page (or in some cases, used a QP) and simply printed it on cardstock.
1. CD calendar using the Black Friday calendar giveaway right here on the blog. The original size of this giveaway calendar is only 2×3 but I enlarged it and it still printed out fine.

2. Instead of using regular Christmas wrapping paper, I used this treat bag topper from Aja & Angie’s Santa Little Helper grab bag and kraft paper to gift wrap some booklets I gave out as presents to friends.

3. Nightlight

4. Canvas panel using Prepared Pretties (quick pages) from HGD by Laurie Ann


5. I used address labels to wrap up these Hersheys nuggets chocolates for some treats for my kids’ classmates.

6. For this pen and notebook set, I mod-podged my printed page on a notebook I bought at Target and tied ribbons on the spiral. For the pen, I glued the printed page on the pen then used tacky tape to adhere microbeads to give the sparkling look.

I hope you got some ideas or were inspired to create by my post. Have a happy Wednesday!
