Throwback Thursday

Hello, Emma over at My Creative Time is having a 3-D challenge! You can create any 3-D item such as gift card sets, gift bags, treat bags etc. but you must use ANY OLDER cartridge of your choice. My son is graduating from Pre-school in a few weeks. Yes... we are so proud! LOL. No, we really are, we were told he is the most polite child at the school! As parents we felt like we got an "A+"! So I have decided to make something VERY simple and easy! Why? I , like many of you, spend hours on projects for people who truly will appreciate them. But for 4 and 5 year old children to rip them apart to get to the goodies... I really needed to keep it simple! I have to say these are cute and the kids will love the mini M& M's inside. I used Emma's Follow Your Dream stamps, The Twinery twine, Locker Talk and Stampin Up die! You can't tell in the pictures but I layered the graduation cap and put foam in between to give it some dimension. I hope you enjoy~ my camera is not taking the best pictures today so please bare with me!

Only 17 more to make! Again easy, fun, and simple! Emma you rock with this set too!

  2. Okay, this is perfect. They are going to go nuts over these, and what little kid doesn't LOVE M&M's. The black and white are super classy. I love that touch of twine and you did Emma's stamps PERFECTLY!!!! Is your son's name Ryan or is that someone else in the class? My husband's name is Ryan so I am rather partial to it. Great job! Hugs- Glora

  14. Congratulations on having the most polite child in preschool! It's important for children to learn manners - so give yourself a pat on the back!
    This little treat box is adorable! I love the stitching on the cap. It really helps it stand out. The little ones will be more interested in what's inside, but the big people will appreciate the wrappers. Good luck with the next 17!
