Let's have "Smores" fun!

Photographed are the "smores" kits I made for my job's bake sale!   No baking required...teee hee!  Of course, the marshmallows-hershey's chocolate bars-graham crackers were purchased at my local grocery store BUT the tags were HAND MADE :)

I cut out tags and the camp fire using my Cricut Expression.  I inked all the sides of the tags with Tim Holtz distress inks. I cut all the marshmallow white squares and brown sticks/twigs by hand.  I embellished the camp fire flame with orange and red glitter.  Hand stamped the saying "a little YUMMY for your tummy".

I filled the "smores" ingredients inside a food safe bag that I purchased from Michaels (baking section).  Tied the bag shut using raffia ribbon and just making a simple bow tying the tag thru the ribbon.

This project was extremely easy to do and my opinion super cute!

NOW GO HAVE "SMORE" FUN!

For Angie

I made this accordian keepsake album (from Rusty Pickle) for my friend Angie as a Thank You gift for planning such an awesome trip to Disney World.  She is a very special giving person whom I have had the pleasure of reconnecting with.  This is our story....I met Angie my freshman year in high school.  Our sophomore year, she transferred to another school and we lost touch.  20+ years later, we reconnected thru a mutual friend on Facebook and now she has been dating my husband's childhood best friend for over a year now. They are very happy and are special to us! 

The beauty of this book and what make it so memorable is my hubby and I have shared in their memories too (even though we are not photographed).  I selected the pics I loved the most, that were memorable to me as well and had them developed in black and white.  I selected the DCWV paper stack since I wanted to keep the vintage black and white theme.  I used all the papers from that paper stack and various embellishments to ornate the photo frames/pages.

This was the end result:

I am happy to report they loved it!  With love to Angie and Tony!
