Entertaining: Melzie submitted this tutorial on how to make a cute pocket to stick in small gifts, candy, etc.

For the Kids: I found this fun tutorial on Polliwog’s Cakewalk on how to make a monster. Fun!

Gift Idea: I found this over on Jill’s blog. It was a gift from her Pink Christmas swap partner who made this amazing wall art on a magnet board from IKEA (genius idea).

She decoupaged paper onto it and embellished it to match the color scheme of Jill’s home (so thoughtful). She made magnets too (not pictured) so Jill can put photos onto the matte spaces and change them out whenever she wants. Fabulous!

Gift Idea: I found this tutorial on Zakka Life on how to make a unique gift tag.

Scrap Craft: Melzie also submitted a tutorial on how to alter wood letters.
