Here are some white lunch bags I stamped on and filled with goodies for my boys. The monster is from My Little Monsters from Recollections.  The hearts are from Bo Bunny Love birds.  Do you see that vase on the left?  My oldest made that at school for me!  So sweet and it’s made using a recycled glass bottle!

I just love this stamp set.  These little monsters are so fun! These containers are a mini version of large ones that my mom, brother, sister and I have.  We use them during the holidays to hold all our baked goods.  I thought these would be fun to have to either fill with candies or when they just want to bring a few cookies along to someone’s house.  They hold more than you would think .  There’s two trays and each tray held 10 cookies!  I was very surprised by this.  These are filled with monster cookies which is their favorite cookie that I make :)  I re-used the twine from the original tag that was on each container.  I used the largest tag in the Sizzix scallop tag combo set 2.  The little hearts were done with the love birds set mentioned above and colorbox chalk dark brown.  Then I wrote 2 little monsters love u!

Here’s a closer look at the tag on a different container.

Here are some things we made for Christmas.  I am so bummed that the pictures are bad because the towel turned out great!  We do something every Christmas for my son’s teachers and this year I decided to have him make his present for them.  I started off with buying flour sack towels.  I washed them and ironed them.  Then I stamped these awesome ornament images from Bo Bunny onto the towel using Colorbox Chalk charcoal.  I then heat set them with my iron.  Then to help Tanner out I stamped the same images again on freezer paper and cut the insides out of them.  I lined them up on the towel and ironed them onto it.  This way as Tanner colored in the ornaments (with Crayola fabric markers) and went out of the lines, it went onto the freezer paper instead of the towel.  Next I peeled off all of the freezer paper and heat set them again according to the box of markers.  I re-ironed the towels and folded them, putting them into these boxes that I made using cs and transparencies.  I tied wide white grosgrain ribbon around them and attached the snowflake tag.  The tag read to: and from: and he wrote his name on each one.  I used the same tags to attached to all the goodie bags he was giving his classmates.  The bags had candy, candy canes, a pencil and a little pad of paper I wiped up.  The pad picture was taken with my cell phone.  I hope you can see it ok.  Thanks for looking
