We're Going Green At GlueArts for the Holidays!

If ever there was a good holiday to go green...Christmas would be the one!

After all Christmas is filled with boxes, papers, tissues, plastics, packaging and that not even to mention all the containers and more we use for our holiday cooking!

Designer Ania Lexander took one of our GlueArts Glue Glider Pro cartridge packages and repurposed it into a fantastic way to give a special treat or gift this holiday season!!

 Gather your materials, including the empty plastic package.

Suggestions to decorations:
- Use Accent it all and your die cut machine of choice to decorate the plastic box on the outside
