Over the Christmas break I...

Made these yummy treats are for my teenage daughter to give to her friends…she’s a Junior in high school and I actually think the kids…ahem I mean young adults…like these treat bags waaay more than when they were in elementary school! LOL! They want to be so grown up yet when you pull out a candy bag they are kids again! CUTE!
The topper I tried to keep simple I used the Penguin I seem to just love! I trimmed off the umbrella…I just don’t care for it so much…and stamped the face with a cute Peachy Keen Stamp! I love the Christmas season! Hope you are all in craft-happy chaos like me!

Dino Birthday Boy!

Happy 1st Birthday Tommy!
This was made for my nephew...for the big FIRST birthday! YAY!!! I used Create a Critter for the main parts of the card. The number 1 is from simply sweet (guessing) and the bottom was just a freehand wavy cut. I used my NEW mosiac cuttlebug folder on the Dino and my Quick Kutz spots (sorry I don't remember the name)
