Let's Make A Christmas Card
I knew the first minute I first saw this stamp set that I wanted to make it appear that the Angel was placing a beautiful star on top of a Christmas Tree. My card went together quickly....until I got to coloring the Angel. I think I colored the Angel four to five times in several different shades, but nothing clicked. When my daughter came over I asked her opinion on it and she suggested a gold gown. Initially I thought the gold was too much with the two gold glittery stars and a piece of gold foil used on the strip of designer papers, but in the end I went with it. I stamped the image on card stock and then paper pieced the Angel over a white base layer using the coordinating die.

Deck The Palms
This collection special is available from November 1st to December 31 2021. You can purchase individual beach and/or beach Christmas themed pieces within the collection. There is also an option to buy the full kit that includes both themes and all of the pieces offered in the collection. The colors are bright and beautiful. I am really enjoying our two recent paper collections using our new "color of the year" Wild Berry. I am not a pink gal, but I totally LOVE this color and even after it retires this fall, it is a keeper. This collection will be perfect for our vacation. I cannot wait to create using it. I placed my order yesterday and will be stalking my mailman for it's delivery. Listed below are TWO newly released YouTube videos showcasing this new Christmas collection and my pictures of the collection.

Day 16 Of My "31 Days of Halloween"
For today's treat box I made a cute rectangle box. Inside was a granola breakfast bar. My Grands love eating these. My daughter keeps extras on hand in their car so if they have activities that delay dinner, they have something good for them to tide them over until dinner. I bought a pack of twenty-four plastic toy fangs. My plans were to take them to the donut shop and ask that they put one in the center of each glazed donut we would buy, but the school mentioned someone had already signed up to bring donuts, so instead I tied one with a bow on the outside of each box. I thought they turned out cute. Enjoy!

Day 14 Of My "31 Days of Halloween"
For today's project I made a treat holder that holds a SpongeBob Krabby Pattie. All four of my Grands love these candies. Jameson likes them the best and a close second is Madison. I have never had one and I am totally okay with that. The two Littles are having a school party tomorrow and again on Thursday. I have a variety of leftover candy from my treat boxes. I think I will take it to the school and let them have it. I sure don't need to be tempted.

Day 13 of my "31 Days of Halloween"
This little bag was quick and easy to make. I picked up a cute bag of individually wrapped coloring books with two small crayons included from Target. I love their dollar spot at the front of the store. I can always find something there. My saved measurements were not quite wide enough for this treat, but it was easy to keep the same original design, but to make modifications to fit. Enjoy!

Day 12 of my "31 Days of Halloween"
For today's treat I thought I would change things up and go with a school themed box. The box was made using my Cricut. Inside was a candy bracelet, an inked stamp, and a miniature candy bar. I went over to see the kids tonight and I noticed Ella had stamped all over both of her arms using the stamp this afternoon after school. Maybe I will stay away from inked stamps in the future.
