Christmas Garland Kits

You're almost out of the woods of me mentioning this craft show I'm doing (If I sell 1 thing I'll be happy because I'm starting to panic!). I got this idea when I did a giveaway of my "Gratitude" banner and thought this might be something good for the show. And it really came together when I did the graphics for my "Framed Christmas Art" and liked the end result enough to play some more.

The colors aren't really showing up well in this pic but it's an olive-y green and burgundy combination. Here's a better look at one of the letters:
Each letter has a heart shaped ornament graphic which I embellished with gold adhesive rhinestones. Added dark garnet rhinestones to each letter which combines a sheet music graphic ( this one from within my graphics program but the others I'll show are from The Graphics Fairy) and mounted on green then black cardstock. Each "kit" includes tulle and embellished clothes pins. 
In addition to the "WISH" series, I did NOEL : 
Packaged in cello bags, black and natural cardstock

The letters that I used in my framed piece, and JOY: 
Can't see it so much, but the ruby cardstock used here is textured
I used a drop shadow effect on the letters for this one.

  5. These are seriously amazing. People ought to really snap up these kits, I am crossing fingers for a great show. The embellished clothespins, extra special touch. And your packaging is so very pro! I feel inadequate!
