Goodies

Christmas is almost here ... as you all know I love to make gifts for the staff at the school I work at ... There is just something about that smile on their faces that makes all pain staking work worth it ...  instead of making my traditional candy bags ... I decided to make tags for candy canes instead ... 120 of them to be exact ...



and another view ...



For the girls teachers, the office staff, and my close friends at the school I made these goodie containers ...



I didn't even get to try any of my cookies, brownies, or Rice Krispie treats ... but, everyone did say they were yummy ...

Scrapbook Class Projects

     This past weekend, my friend Patty hosted a scrapbooking class at her house ... she had me as her "special guest" ... made me feel important ... I got to show off the "stamping skills" that everyone keeps telling me I have ... lol ...
     Besides just being a "special guest", I also got to participate in the class ... my sister, Patty's mom, and I were the class clowns at our own table ... it was a ton of fun ... I forgot to bring my picture for the page we made so I had to finish mine up at home ... of course I had to add my "Haberstroh Touch" to them ... I added some Stickles on everything to put on that "finishing touch" ...  you can see Patty's original design HERE ... and here are my finished projects ...



... and here is a close-up of the scrapbook page ...


... I made our Christmas cards at Walmart.com again this year ... I like how they had collage cards ... I wanted to use the card as my picture for the page and put it in a frame so I could display it every year ... I just cut the end picture off and put it on the bottom right corner so that the whole card could be included ... Believe it or not I am actually impressed with myself ... lol ...
