Sunflowers

For the next batch I will paint the sticks green but I was making these in bulk with youth from the church and didn't want to complicate the process more than I already had.

Supplies:

Scallop Punch

Circle Punch

Orange textured paper

Yellow textured paper

brown and tan buttons

Mini Peppermint Patties

Confectioner's sticks

Glue stick

Glue dots

Floral foam

Crinkled gift bag filler

Small tin buckets (these are from the One Spot at Target)

Here Comes Christmas!

Saturday, September 5, 2009. I went to a crop tonight and worked on Christmas things. This card was an inspiration. I love textured paper, I love ribbon, I love mix and matching black and white patterns.

Breakfast on the Go

Thursday, August 27, 2009. Next Tuesday is the first day of Preschool here at First Presbyterian Church. I will be greeting parents and children in the morning. As the parents leave I will give each of them a "Breakfast on the Go" bag. The bag contains a single-serving bottle of orange juice, a muffin, granola bar, wet wipe and a booklet of prayers for families. There are mealtime prayers for home and prayers especially written for those times when we eat in our cars. The library pocket on the outside of the bag contains a note from the Pastor an me welcoming the families to our church.

Teacher Gifts

Tuesday, August 25, 2009. These are fun little "pails" for the Sunday School Teachers. Each one has a juice box, a cereal bar and a set of prayers inside.

Card Set

I'm working on this tin for a sweet friend who does WAYYYY too much for me.

Desk Set

I made this for myself-I NEVER make things for myself! It's a card organizer, mini clip board, accessory tin and memo clip.

Spa Jar

I made three of these last night (pink, blue and green) 2 as birthday gifts for coworkers and 1 for a friend who is undergoing chemo. The set includes body butter, bath salts, bubble bath, body wash, lip balm, chamomile tea, chocolates and a candle.
