BOO BOXES

I found the tutorial for these cute "boo boxes" here http://qbeesquest.blogspot.com/2011/09/boo-box-tutorial.html What a cute idea! Behind the "boo" should be a piece of candy, but I did not have any that fit at the moment. When I saw these I had to make them right away!

COASTERS

This coaster set was a gift from First Niagara Bank to the volunteers of student banking. Thank you back to them, it was a nice gift. I can slide the pieces out of the coaster and change them up whenever I want. They were meant to hold photos. I can also pop the tag off the front and change out the ribbon if I choose.

EASTER FAVORS

I made these to put at each seat at the table. I filled them with candy each person liked. There is a tag with their name on each.

BIRD HOUSE

I bought this bird house at Target in their dollar bin. I knew I had to get it to alter. Its amazing how much you can actually spend in the "dollar bin" ! There are so many possibilities.

ALTERED ABC BOARD BOOK

I found these ABC board books in a 3 pack at the dollar store. I decided I would play around and see what happened. I made this for my niece Kaylee. I think next time I will slice the pages apart then cover them. They dont close very well with all the paper in it. Will look really cute on her shelf with pic of the family in it. She lives in NC and us in NY :( 

Cardstock:  Rich Razzleberry, Melon Mambo, and Whisper White

DSP: Razzleberry Lemonade

Rich Razzleberry Ribbon

EASTER CHOCOLATE MILK POUCH

I found this pouch tutorial on the internet for Hot Chocolate, but I knew what I had to do with it. I had just found Chocolate Milk pouches at Michael's.

Cardstock: Pink Pirouette, Pear Pizazz

DSP: Sale-a-Bration paper pack

Punches: Decorative Label and Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border

I also used Pear Pizazz Binding ribbon and Vintage Flower Adornments.

GERBER DAISIES

I saw these on a  Stampin Up! site for Demonstrators. I just knew I had to give them a try. I love them. Thanks to whoever I saw them from.

It uses the Daisies #2 die cut, you need 4 of each size. I wrapped a bendy straw with ribbon for the stem. I dont know how long it will hold, I may make more but use a large brad in the center to hold the staw on and then cover the back with a circle to hide the brad.
