Valentine's Day Easel Treat Box


I made these for my co-workers for Valentine's Day!  I had fun coming up with different things to put in them.  I still have this awful cold- I am into my 2nd week!  I think I will survive but my energy level is very low!  The picture below shows what I was able to put in the treat box that is on the front of the easel.  I would have done a video but my voice is so awful with the cold- I sound like a man!





The cupid has a tiny clothes pin that I hot glued to the back. The little square you see with the heart has a Ghiradelli chocolate square inside.    I love the saying I used on the tag- "All you need is LOVE but a little CHOCOLATE now and then, doesn't hurt"  How true!  I found the instructions for the Easel Treat box on Pinterest -

I did add a paper clip that I had tied bits of ribbon around it and then hot glued a little rose.  I love the Prima doll stamp that I have in my stash.  I also made some Teacup treat holders!  These are filled with Hershey's kisses.  I think these are adorable!  Hope your Valentine's Day was fun!

Rocket Ship Birthday


Hi all!  I am home sick today!  I don't remember when I have had a cold this bad!  Usually, I am over a cold in one or two days with maybe a few sniffles.  I have had this thing for 4 days and still feel lousy!  Worse- my husband has it too!  He is a couple days ahead of me- since he gave it to me!  He said today was the first day he felt better.  Great...

Anyway, I thought I would share a picture of a card I made for a co-worker's Grandson.  He likes Rocket ships!  I found the inspiration on Pinterest.    I can't seem to find the link to the person who inspired me.  Sorry, it doesn't help that my nose is running and I am coughing.....The window in the spaceship has mirrored paper in it.  You can almost see yourself in it..  


I made this  last week.  When I was feeling much better than I am today.
This will be a short post.  I have to go blow my nose and take some more Advil.  Hope you day is fun...Hope I feel better tomorrow.....
