The idea of Magic Reindeer Food is certainly not new, or my own, but I think it's a good one and wanted to put my own spin on it. I packaged up some oats, colored sugars, and holiday "jimmies", and added toppers to the bags. You can't see it in the photos (because I did it after I took the photos), but these also got a spritz of super fine gold glitter for lots of shimmer and shine. Oooo la la!
I found lots of samples of Magic Reindeer Food on SplitCoastStampers by searching the gallery for "reindeer food". Some people used a poem, and others didn't. I found a poem I liked and then edited it a bit, just because.
The images of the reindeer on the front are from two different Recolections stamp sets I picked up at Michael's during a 50% off sale. The art reminds me of older Stampin' Up art that I LOVE, and I'm guessing were illustrated by the same artist that did the halloween set I used on these cards. Yup, I'd lay money on it, even.
Anna, you sure know how to dress up a package. This would just put a big sparkle in a kid's eyes. I can see them all outside sprinkling this over the snow:)

These are darling! We have a new young neighbor who might like these. Of course, I don't know how it would fit in with the sponge bob santa they have on the lawn! Your flower brooches are very pretty. Hugs.
