Tea Time

Hello again! 

Doreen here from polkadotpaperprincess.blogspot.com.  Today, I have a simple, but fun project.

 My darling grand daughter came for a visit.  She really wanted to have a tea party.  We made cookies together for our snacks.    It was a small little party for our little family.  Everyone of the girls was given a cup and they all decorated them how they wanted so they all ended up with a unique cup. 

The cups were made from Tags, Bags, Boxes and More2.  They were a little tricky to start, but after a couple, they went together really quickly.  We used them to put our cookies into!  We also decided to decorate the side board with "All things tea!"  We used Storybook for the font.  We used Love you a Latte for the tea set.  We took a Cuttlebug folder to add a bit of depth to the trim.  The girls were tickled pink!  lol!  It's so sweet we still haven't taken it down! lol!

Everyone enjoyed the day.  Making cookies, cups and drinking tea together was wonderful! Great memories were made!

 
I didn't realize I had not taken close up of the projects.  We were too busy having fun!  I hope you will do something fun with the little princes or princesses in your lives!

St. Patty's Day Candy Cracker!

Hey guys, it's Angie from Angie's Paper Passion! Do you know that St. Patrick’s Day is next Sunday? Well, I’m sure you all know that I’m not Irish, lol, but like my friend Danita said, “you can kiss me anyway”! Today I made this candy cracker for St. Patty’s Day.

 

It's filled with 'lucky" chocolate coins (They're chocolate, THAT"S why they're LUCKY, duh!) 

But I've created a window in my cracker so you can see all of that chocolate luckiness, lol! And I've added a lucky horseshoe, "Good Luck", and some green bling to make this a festive St. Patrick's Day candy cracker!

The recipe with sizes is on my blog HERE! 

I hope your St. Patty's Day will be filled with fun and luck!

Until next time, Happy Crafting,

Angela

Halloween Treats

Hello everyone, this is Maura aka Happy Granny.  For my grandchildren this Halloween I am making Halloween survival kits. At this point I have only 2 of the components completed.

For the Vampire Stakes package I used the French Fry Box from TBBM2 cut at 7.25 in. The Vampire is from Autumn Celebrations and is cut at 3.5 in. The scallop circles are from Cricut Essentials and are cut at 1.7 and 2 in. The center phrase I created on my computer and cut out with a 1 in Circle punch. The stakes are chocolate coated pretzel rods.

 

 

For the Silver Bullets Box I used the Matchbox from TBBM and cut it at 4 in. The Werewolf is from A Frightful Affair and is cut at 3.5 in. I added "Stickles" to his eyes to make them sparkle. The silver bullet phrase was created on my computer and cut out with a punch. I used ribbon for the  pull. I used a circle from Cricut Essentials cut at 1.5 for the moon and then trimmed it to fit into the corner then stamped and embossed it for the clouds. I will be filling it with chocolate bullets coated in silver pearl dust. 

 

Happy Halloween everyone !
