This is what I have created with my MiC goodies!
This super fun Santa Sleigh 3-D Chipboard Kit! These chipboard kits are so easy and fun to put together! And they are really strong too! I could play with one of these kits everyday!!
I filled the sleigh with a burlap bag that I made that was filled with some scented Christmas Potpourri, greenery, Candy Canes and of course, Santa. This makes a great decoration or even a table centerpiece. It would even make a great gift for someone. You could place some money or a gift card inside of the sleigh! I also used some beautiful Chipboard 6-Point Snowflakes from the MiC Store too.
The reindeer were also so easy to put together. Before I assembled them, I simply rubbed some different colors of brown, cream and white ink pads over them to give them color. I then added the pom-pom trim and little bits of holly and berries to them.
I adhered the entire thing onto a long piece of cardboard with a hot glue gun, so that it is easier to move around. I then added lots of snow (batting) and tons of glitter!
Don't forget to leave a comment below before December 31st and stop by the Make it Crafty Store blog to 'open the door' to 24 other inspirational projects!
Thank you so much for joining us and we wish you and your loved ones a wonderful loving Christmas.

You did a great job on the shadow box and the sleigh/reindeer. Love it all.
I looks at this and wondered how would I be inspired to make something. After a little bit the penny dropped. Instead of making a lovely frame like you I could actually make it in to a clock.
Great job on both projects, thank you for sharing x
Melissa this is awesome, really like the way you pictured Santa , I can envision the reindeer pulling the sleigh.
Wow, what beautiful work you do. Thanks for the opportunity to win some blog candy.
Such cute projects! Love the shadowbox. I like the round shape. The sleigh is so cute. You did a wonderful job coloring and decorating. I definitely want to get that kit! Have a great Holiday season!
What a super project - I really must check out the 3D kits at MIC

I love the santa and his reindeer - so cute, what a lot of time you have put into that pieces, really beautiful x x x
I love what you have done with the sleigh kit. Mine is still sitting unopened on my shelf. You have inspired me to get it out and I now have all year to make a masterpiece like yours. I would never have thought of hot gluing the whole thing down onto a base. Great idea.
I love these projects. I esp. like Santa's sleigh ride.
