Teachers are Brilliant!

Hello my creative friends! Can you believe how fast this year is flying by? It's almost the middle of April and soon enough school will be out and Summer will be here! There's a lot to be done before the school year ends and making sure we appreciate our teachers on May 6th is one of them.

This year I wanted to let each teacher know why they are special with these cards. My children want to write messages to all their teachers and these cards will be fun for them to hand out on Teacher Appreciation Day.

Project Recipe:

Trendy Twine in Blue Berry

My Creative Times' Dies and Sentiment

Action Wobble

Craft, black and red cardstock

School patterned paper

Ribbon paperclip embellishment

Alphabet embossing folder

The kids will have fun showing their teachers how this element works.

Well, there's a lot more of these cards to make so I better get to work.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a great day!

Disney fun!

Hello my creative friends! Today I've created a project for the Action Wobble blog just for my Girl Scout Brownies. Cookie sales ended March 16th and to reward the girls for all their hard work we took a trip to the Happiest Place on Earth. We attended a class at Disney's California Adventure theme park on Designing a Disney Character and spent the rest of the day at both Disneyland Resort parks.

With that in mind, I thought it would be fun to present the girls with this adorable goodie bag at our next meeting. Inside I have a special Disney pin to remember our trip, their next Journey patch and a skill building patch they earned this month.

The adorable Minnie Mouse wobbles to and fro adding just the perfect amount of action to this fun bag of goodies.

Project Recipe:

Mickey - Cricut image cut at 2 3/4"

large polka dot embossing folder

red grosgrain ribbon

My Creative Time - Stitched Oval die and "Congratulations" sentiment

Trendy Twine - Celebration twine

4X6" card stock topper

4x6" cello bag

My girls have been working hard all year on the World of Girls journey and other skill building patches and I LOVE to create these kind of rewards for them. I hope they enjoy receiving these as much I did making them.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a great rest of your day!

Luck of the Irish

Hello my crafty friends!

What a busy time of year this is for our family. We are almost done selling Girl Scout cookies, ending the second trimester at school, finishing DIY projects around the house and making plans for our Spring Break! But before any of that can happen I need a little bit of the Luck of the Irish on my side.

Today I've created a project for St Patrick's Day that could be given out as class treats, Teacher gifts or to your children. These sour cream container treats are super easy to make and when you add an Action wobble to them they are also really fun!
