Jesus Is Our Greatest Gift

This is the quickest and simplest bulletin board I have ever done, but I like it and especially the message.  I combined ideas from the following three pins:  Victorian Christian Woman, Home and Heartstrings, and The Classroom Creative.  Thank you all for the ideas!

I used wrapping paper with the names of Jesus (from Hobby Lobby) as the background paper and just used some ribbon I already had.  I made the tag on my computer and attached it with some more ribbon. 

Pin the Nose on Rudolph

This is a Pin the Nose on Rudolph game I made last year for our children's Christmas party at church.  I started with a blue poster board and then hand cut the "snow" on the ground.  The snowflakes are punches.  I already had the Christmas tree from another project (to possibly be posted at a later date).  The tree is from the Cricut cartridge Paper Doll Dress Up, and it is decorated with different punches.  The cute little Rudolph is cut on my Silhouette using a cut file by Stinkin Cute,  and the little silhouette of Santa's sleigh is from Paper Piecings by Nikki.

Crowns

I made these crowns (ten in all) for the 2012 Christmas cantata.  Using Cricut Craft Room I welded a long rectangle and multiples of the "crown-s" shape from the Wall Decor and More cartridge.  I cut them out of gold poster board then glittered them and added sequins.  Here is a screenshot of my CCR file.

Christmas Tree 2011

It seems every year I get less and less interested in decorating my Christmas tree.  I wanted to go with something different this past Christmas -- something simple -- so I cut out some homemade ornaments using my Cricut.  I had found the foil papers (by American Crafts) for a great price at TJ Maxx.  I used the Holiday Cakes, Inspired Heart, and Winter Woodland cartridges.  It wasn't the greatest tree I've ever had, but it got the job done.

This star was my special ornament.  My mother (who is responsible for my love of crafting) made this.  She never had money for craft supplies, but she could make the greatest things out of trash.   We lost her suddenly in 2007.  I miss her so much.
