First up are some goodies I made for my birthday peeps.  Two gals have the same birthday as me at the school I work at.  I made them these little stands, mini cupcakes and card for our special day.  The inside of the card said ‘big wishes to my birthday peeps’.  I had just gotten this stamp and loved it! You will see I used it again for Easter.  I got the idea from the tomkat studio.  They were inexpensive, fast and fun to make.  I will be making more of them.

This is a card I made for my nephew who turned 1!

Next are some easter goodie bags and tags for my nieces and nephews.  I cut the tip of the pins off after I had them tread through the bag and tag. I used Stazon pumpkin ink to stamp the dots onto the lunch sack. The tag was cut with my Sizzix Tags, Scallop combo #2 and my Epic 6.

And of course some Mickey Mouse cupcake toppers for Gaven’s birthday!  He loves Mickey Mouse (right now he’s in to Yogi the Bear).  I used my Mickey punch and a circle punch to create these.  I typed up and printed the words on my computer.  I cut them apart, stamped them with some blue circles and attached them to the red circle ( 1 3/4 inch punch), layered the Mickey head and then adhered them to a toothpick.  The tooth pick is sandwiched between this and another red circle on the back.  The punches came from Hobby Lobby.   I made a fun birthday banner to but can’t figure out where the picture went….

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.

My aunt had surgery and this was a little treat we brought her.  I re-used a peanut butter jar and filled it with mini candy bars.  The dot paper was in my scrap box (I know it came from HL…thinks it’s paper studio).  The button is paper studio and twine is PTI. The scallop circle was done with Nestabilities large scalloped circles.  The ovals were done with Creative Memories oval cutter.  Image is American Crafts clear stamps sentiments.  I stamped the image twice.

A friend of mine had her daughter in the hospital for several days as they were trying to figure out was making her so sick.  This is a little care package I made for her.  It’s filled with a variety of her favorite chocolates.  The tin I re-used, it once had chocolate pretzel balls in it.  Paper is all the same from the above project.  Stamp is from Inkadinkado. Felt flower, brad and ribbon in stash.  Nestabilities large scalloped squares.  The cream tag was done with Sizzix tags, scallop combo #2.

The card was tucked inside the box, I used up scraps for this too.  The stamp  is Kolette Hall got Studio G. 

Thanks for looking.  I hope your weather is better than ours.  We have ran which is freezing can causing accidents all around town.  Maybe it will help melt the snow as we warm up today!  I don’t know about you but I am ready for spring and green grass to play in
