Did this box of goodies for my mother to donate to a penny auction tomorrow night. Then i did up 8 more of those cute Spring boxes for my ladies group meeting on Saturday.
This blog is to show and share my creative works, hopefully give someone else some inspiration or help me keep being creative.

Candles and rocks
I did a couple of candles today, use some vinyl for embellishments, beads and ribbon. Then yesterday while in Family Dollar i saw this bag of river rocks..so i got a bag and thought of using Mod Podge on them and adding something, so did these 2 just playing around, im sure once i get into my stash i will find other things to put on them. Hey maybe im bringing pet rocks back,lol.

Mint books
Made these up real quick yesterday morning, just changed the cross and instead of printing on photo paper, i printed these on a matte cardstock, really nice paper and i like these better then the ones i did on photo paper. Just did a few will have to do more this week..a woman came to me last Sunday and mentioned how she tore her's up because she was mad at God, said he wasn't answering her prayers quick enough, or answering the way that she wanted him too. She's since made up with God and is now ok with Him, she had even stopped coming to church for few weeks. So i thought id make her up a few, she was happy when i gave them to her.
Lots of tissues, lots of noses
Ok weird title right,lol..but anyway last week I took a few packs of tissues, personalized with the church name on them..well they loved them..so I took about 45 more packs yesterday.
Floral arrangement
I mentioned a few post ago how I've been asked to create baskets, buckets, etc..for members of the church that have been out ill, bereavement, etc. So here is another one that I did, member is going into the hospital today as a matter of fact, someone will take it to her at the hospital. And of course being a candy wrapper I will always add some type of candy...this person likes eagles, hence the eagle wrappers. Funny thing was yesterday in church the bulletin had an eagle on it. It helps if i kind of know the person so can really be personalized but of course i don't know all of the members, well not there likes. Hopefully every one i make i get better at it. I need to go stock up on some flowers because I need to do another one for this week.

Something different..well at least for me..
This was a different kind of order for me..the customer brought mostly everything and wanted me to put it together. She gave me 2 Hershey with almonds, 2 Mallo cups, Extra gum, a pk of tissue, lighters, 2 11 oz travel mugs, jelly beans, a pk of napkins, 2 gift cards, some candles, i think thats it. So i wrapped everything i could wrap,lol, found this box to put everything in and here it goes. Oh and then I thought id make them a set of salt/pepper shakers. In case you hadn't noticed it's this couples 40th wedding anniversary, the customer is the mother of the wife. They haven't seen anything like this personalized wrappers so i know she will flip tomorrow when she comes to get it, which is a good thing cuz that will make her talk about it and hopefully bring me some more orders,lol.
Ok its Spring..even if it doesn't feel like it..
And for that reason i put these cute little boxes together..along with wrapping some Hershey mini's. I didn't design these but I did print and put them together,lol, aren't they nice and bright and cute.
