Here are a few more things that I have done recently.


This is a fleece blanket that I added the New York Yankees logo to for my husband for Christmas. I did this with my Cricut, using the freezer paper method. It is one of the 'extra plush' fleece blankets. Believe it or not, I did 2 heavy coats of paint, but there is so much pile that you can still see white through it when you move your hand across it. This was a fun project though and Eric loved it! I haven't tried a t-shirt yet, but I'm sure that it is very easy after doing something thick like this.


These are full size Hershey bars wrapped up in pretty Valentine paper and ribbon. What Valentine doesn't like chocolate?!


More Hershey bars. These have messages on the ribbons. "Thank you" , "Wish you were here" , and "Congrats". I think these are such a cute way of letting someone know that you thought about them today!
More Hershey bars, birthday style!

Monster Birthday Hershey bars. I saw this paper in the DCWV year stack and fell in love with it! I don't know a little boy that wouldn't love it!

More Valentine Hershey bars. I fell in love with this paper. For some reason, it reminds me of my grandma. I know that she would have grabbed this one off from the shelf too!


More Valentines...


I got this idea from Inking Idaho! She did these at Christmas. I gave them a try with my new Martha Stewart Valentine's Day Stamps and a $1 bin stamp from Michael's. I think they turned out cute. They have peppermint patties stuck to the back of each of the circles. I flipped some of them over so that you could see.

These are sour cream containers full of red M&M's for Valentines.
These are folders that hold a little note pad. They have a velcro tab that holds them shut. I found this tutorial while blog hopping one day. I want to say that it was a SU! blog that I was on, but don't remember for sure. I will see if I can find it again and will post the link. They are fun to make and so very useful! They are made out of file folders. I will work on finding that link for you...


This shows the inside. I also put a piece of the folder over the top of the note pad so that it matches.
These are a couple of 5X7 Valentine's Day cards. They have a small cup of M&M's on the front of them. I am not a very patient person. I found out about the sweet treat cups from SU! and got so excited over them. I placed an order, but due to the holidays, it took about 2 weeks for them to get here. So, being the impatient person that I am, I bought some Valentine candy molds at Joann's and tried doing my own. I think they came out cute. BUT, to be completely honest, they sure are a lot of work compared to the SU! sweet treat cups!

And here are the SU! sweet treat cups! I "lifted" this idea from Candace at http://www.scrapadoodledee.blogspot.com/. She comes up with a lot of really cute ideas! I just love the new Paisley cartridge for my Cricut and couldn't wait to try this bee out! This project also gave me an excuse to bust out some of my new Stickles! All of the black on the bee is Stickled, but it doesn't show up well in the pictures.

More SU! sweet treat Valentine's!

This is a journal. It has 100 lined pages inside.

Another journal.
Well, now I think I have everything that I have made up added on here! I need to get to work making some more things. Maybe some more Valentine cards...
Thanks for stopping by!
