Halloween Yummies with Whimsy Release!

Hiya everyone!

So behind the scenes, I make dozens of treat boxes and or tags, totes and bookmarks you don't get to see.  Usually for special occasions like Valentines Day, Halloween , showers or craft sales and today's project is one of those occasions.  I was asked to make a package for the most recent craft sale that could be raffled off and I decided to make these gift packages and I put them together in a basket.  I made 2 dozen of them and took a picture then when I went to get them from the camera, I couldn't locate them, so I made one today again (obviously a very simple project) and created this post.

This is the Yummy part!

I love creating with the Sentiments from Raindrop Echo w/Whimsy, they are extremely versatile and can be combined for a ton of purposes.  This project, for example, is a combination of a previously released bottle cap image and die with a word extra from the new Holiday Banner Pennant sentiment set just released this month.  I hope you enjoy it and it helps you keep in mind that even the littlest stamping project can have a large impact!

Eye Candy "Magnet" with Kenny K and Whimsy!

Good morning!  Boy!  Yesterday's sale went really well as I took a consignment order that will pay for 1/2 of next years table charge, so yeah!   It was an exhausting day though and when I got home I all of a sudden couldn't stop sniffling!  Figures right?  I spent the day in an elementary school and now I have the sniffles!

I got home and new I had the finishing touches to put on today's project so I was up until 1:30 am getting it ready to photo this morning for the post!  I hope you enjoy it as I'm sure anyone that likes "Candy" (even the eye kind) would love!  Hope you enjoy it, oh and by the way, when the bag is empty, the entire image comes off and is a refrigerator magnet!  Well gotta keep the Holidays in mind longer than it takes to eat a little sweet!  hehe

Backpacking Jiggy!

Cards for Jessica, Jillianne and Wyatt

It was brought to my attention that there is a wonderful organization that sends cards to children who are in hospitals, Card Cupids.

Can you help out??

HERE is the blog post that explains more about it! 
Thanks!!!


Good Friday to all my friends and family. . . My week has been so fun and beautiful!  My yard is just blooming away and the bee's are loving it!

So if you've followed my posts for a while, you know I have a 4 year old twin niece and nephew that are Aunt Tammy's little loaners!  I'm not a grandma yet but they fill that spot right up almost every weekend to give mommy and daddy that much needed break.  Anyway, they are going to school! Yikes!  Kindergarten already!

I wanted to make each of them a surprise for their first day away from mommy and this is for him, my little Kevin bug!  It reminds me of my sons first backpack except it had comic book squares all over it!  The backpack is altered from a purse template and the notepad is my own creation using cardboard from a card collection kit.  They both love to take your pizza orders so I thought it would be perfect to meet some new friends with at school! (other than sissy) hehe!

This is my first try at rolled flowers ( no pattern, just cut and rolled), I added cosmic shimmer watercolor paint to the image for the dragon scales to shine, glimmer misting a project as well as using the velcro fastener.  My favorite dragon Jiggy, available at Stamping Dragon Designs, is headed back to school on the backpack for my little Kevin!  Hope he enjoys it as much as I did making it.

Don't forget to hop over to Stamping with the Dragon Challenge Blog for inspiration and a challenge, our current sponsor is Dragon Designs , they have great new grab bags, papers and adorable new images as well!  So stop in, I would love to see your latest projects following the sketch below.
