AC Moore/Joann Haul

I caught the shopping bug, so I ventured out to see what deals I could find.

Happy Valentine's Day!

For Valentine's Day, I found a bunch of cute crafts that I wanted to make. Unfortunately, I ran out of time and didn't get them all completed. Here are a few things that I did get done. A friend of mine has 2 girls, so it was nice to be able to make something for girls. Here are the treat boxes that I made for them. I lifted this idea off of one of the message boards and thought it was such a cute idea.

I made one for my son and he is on a sugar high! I also found this cute idea for and iPod made out of a box of conversation hearts, paper, string and Reese's.

To my surprise, when I walked in the door from work, these beautiful roses were there waiting for me from my husband. Besides the boys having basketball practice that night, Valentine's Day was very nice! TFL

Super Bowl Sunday

For Super Bowl Sunday we went to a party at some friend's house. They always have a wonderful spread so I didn't want to bring a dish. Instead I saw this cute idea on the Cricut Forum for pillow boxes with lollipops. I couldn't resist. I used the Gypsy to hide the bunny on the pillow box from the Easter cartridge. It was soooooo easy! I used an embossing folder to make the paper look like leather and twine to keep with the rustic look. They were a huge hit!
