Cute suitcase box



Sonia bought the cutest suitcase die for the Big Shot!I decided to use it to make a suitcase box for Ingvild's departure.



I put some Stampin up ribbon all around to make it look like leather straps. It also helped to keep the suitcase closed.



This is what it looks like when opened. I filled it with some maple leaf shaped chocolates. It is SOOOOOO cute in person! Very tiny and delicate, yet spacey enough for a nice treat!

bubblegum machine gift

Here is a bubblegum machine gift I made for a friend!
I was inspired by a bubblegum machine party favor i saw online... I got a terra cotta pot and spray painted it red, then I got a glass bowl at dollarama and glue it on top. I put some plastic covered foam in the middle , filled it up with gum, then made some bubblegum machine suckers and planted them in the foam.



Doesn't it look so sweet?

Sympathy cards

We needed two sympathy cards at work this week (unfortunately). Here are the cards I made for them.




Once again, they look much nicer in person!

Easter goodies

I got the printable for the cupcakes at THIS website.



I found the idea for these little baskets last year. A friend had made one for me.



These carrots were very popular online this year because of the new Stampin Up cone die.... we just added extra greenery at the end to make it look cuter.




I always liked these cute little baskets... they look so springish!

bday picks, tags and hand sanitizers

Here are the bday picks I made for Maelie's birthday party. The picks will go on the cupcakes.



I also made some little tags with a thank you note to include in the goodie bags!



I found little green apple pocket bacs the other day on clearance at Bath and body works. They had a leprechaun on them, but I just covered it with the cute little alligator scallops I made!




I think I am almost done with most of the birthday prep. We still have to finish up some little soaps we are making, then package all the goodies up, and bake the cupcakes!

Easter carrots

I love the carrots that Sonia made!! I will for sure be making a few myself. We saw this idea in a few places on the web, all of them had a different touch. This one is my favorite because of the leaves and the embossing....soooooo cute!!



Chocolates for Maelie's party!

Here is a pile of bite sized chocolates for Maelie's party. We have alligators, turtles and spiders.



Here's a crocodile sucker:



And here is the Happy Birthday 9 sucker:



Maelie's friends would NOT understand if I didn't make chocolate for her party! They look forward to it!

Here are chocolates that Sonia made for Naomie's party:



I just love the contrast with mine! Such girly cheerful spring colors!!
