Easter Card #2

I found this card HERE. Isn't it adorable?

I couldn't find a card base like this on a cartridge, so I created one on my Gypsy using Cricut Craft Room Basics (yes, I am still using my Gypsy. I still haven't had time to contact Cricut Customer Service to get everything transferred).

Recipe:
A2 card (made using Cricut Craft Room Basics)
Rabbit - Create a Critter @ 3.5"
Easter Basket - Create a Critter @ 1"
Carrots - Create a Critter @ 3/4"
Grass - Everyday Paper Dolls @ 3.5" x 6"

St. Patrick's Day/Birthday Treat Bags

My grand-daughter's 6th birthday is on St. Patrick's Day. She helped design her treat bags for her class.

I bought the card stock after Christmas at Michael's. Because the paper packs had Christmas on the label, I got each pack of 50 sheets for 99 cents each. I bought green, red, hot pink, turquoise, and lime green.

My grand-daughter decided she would do two different treat bags. One for the girls, and one for the boys.

Recipe:
SU Bitty Butterfly punch
MS 3-in-1 Butterfly punch
SU Sheltering Tree stamp set
SU Always Artichoke ink
MS Four Leaf Clover punch
Taylored Expressions Sack it to You die set
Enclore Ultimate Metallic Gold ink

Box Tops for Education

My grand-daughters kindergarten class is collecting Box Tops. I created this container to take to work so (hopefully) my co-workers will help contribute to the cause.

I recycled a coffee container from my husbands stash, found a SVG of the Box Tops for Education logo online, and used nail polish remover to remove the printed coffee logo on the container. Nothing fancy, but my grand-daughter loved it!
