Teachers' Happy Birthday Treat Boxes

For my son's birthday party at school, I send LOTS of treat bags.  Not only do I do bags for the 50 + kiddos, I also make each one of his teachers a treat bag/box of their own!  I usually stuff chocolate in their bags/boxes since every teacher needs a dose of chocolate a day! =)

I used a wedding treat box I found on clearance at Wal-Mart. =)  I then added some Happy Birthday and blue ribbon from Hobby Lobby.  I think they will love it, especially when they open it to all the chocolate inside! =) Simply and sweet.

Monster Truck Treat Bags

Today my little boy turns 4! =(  Where does the time go??  For his BIG birthday party this weekend, I made each child a "MONSTER" style treat bag.  My son's favorite colors are yellow, red, and blue.  I used yellow and red colored bags and cut the monster trucks in purple and green - the same colors of this favorite truck.  Then we STUFFED them!  The kiddos loved them!

I cut the trucks at 3" from the Boys Will Be Boys cartridge (one of my favorites).  I ran the truck bodies through the cuttlebug to add some distress to them.  Then we used silver stickles to add some bling. =)


Now on to Easter projects! 

"Date Night" Scrapbook Page

My dear hubby had pneumonia this year during Valentine's Day so he wasn't able to do anything special for me.  We normally do not do much, if anything, for Valentine's day.  This year he wanted to something special for his "nurse" (me) who took care of him during his illness. So sweet!


So, we had a "Date Night" all to ourselves!!  Of course, I had my camera with me!

I used the Sweethearts cartridge for the couple.  I'm not sure what I used the title.  I'll have to get back to you on that one.  I thought it turned out super cute! =)

4th Birthday Treat Bags

My son is turning 4!  Where does the time go???  I made these treat bags for his friends at his pre-school.  They are so wonderful to throw each child a party on their birthday!  So, I make 50 + treat bags for ALL the kiddos! =)

"Something Special" Baby Card

No Gypsy was used for this project. =(  I had to literally make this card in seconds!  I used one of the My Pink Stamper Stamp Sets and used some cutesy baby paper from Hobby Lobby.  I think it turned out super cute!

"Friends" Birthday Card

My son's best friend is having a birthday party today!  Our sweet little "B" is turning 3!!  HE insisted on buying her a specific Minnie Mouse movie strictly from HIM!  So I made a card specifically from him.


She LOVES frogs and MONKEYS!!  They LOVE watching Curious George!  So I busted out my gypsy and went to work.

The Monkey is from my new Life's A Party cartridge.  I copied it, flipped it, and welded the branch together.  These two kids do EVERYTHING together so I wanted something with 2 characters. 

I then found the "Friends" embellishment along with the matching brads.  I think it turned out SUPER cute! :)  Now off to get ready for the PARTY!! :)

MPS Pinkalicious Blog Hop (March)

My Pink Stamper's March Pinkalicious Blog hop theme was something for Spring.  I had to make a birthday card for my son's best friend.  She LOVES frogs so I thought I would make it pink and springish!  I thought it turned out super cute!!

I used Create A Critter cartridge for the frog and lily pad.  I used pink tulle (my new favorite after watching one of Robyn's DVDs). I added Diamond Dust to the rose for some bling.  Then I added stickles to the frog's cheeks for some more bling.  (A girl can never have too much BLING) The sentiment is from Robyn's Punny-licious stamp set.

Stickles & Tulle, I LOVE IT!! :)
