So how smart are your kids? When I was a little girl I noticed Santa's handwriting looked an awful lot like my dad's barely legible chicken scratch. Now that I am playing the role of the big red guy, I want to deceive my kids as long as possible and make Santa's presents extra special under the tree. So this year I decided to label our Santa presents with oversized, glittery letters. I love, love, love how it came out! This is definitely a new tradition for our family!
I applied the letters directly to the wrapping paper using a glue stick. On Christmas morning I discovered I was able to pull the letters off fairly easily and use them in my Christmas scrapbook. An extra bonus!
Glittered cardstock comes in a rainbow of colors. The cost of glittered lettering is $3.50 per sheet. I am able to rearrange the letters of your text to squeeze as many letters as possible on to your sheet. For my presents I cut letters averaging three inches tall, and was able to cut six names (with five letters each) per one scrapbook page.

Cookie Plate
A request for a personalized cookie plate for Santa. You can transform any dish, platter, or charger plate in to a fun holiday tradition. Ross, Marshalls, Home Goods, Tuesday Morning, and other similar stores are a great place to find inexpensive gems to decorate!
