I decided for todays hop to make a couple Sweet
Treats that can be handed out to your child's new
Treats that can be handed out to your child's new
teacher on the first day of school.
I though "what teacher wouldn't love some home
baked cookies". Especially when they are made
with love. And why wouldn't you want to have
a cute Apple card to go with them.
a cute Apple card to go with them.
The cookies are made from the recipe off the back
of the tollhouse chocolate chip package. I added an
extra 1/2 package of chocolate chips to the mix because
who doesn't love LOTS of chocolate chips. I used
my nestabilities to make the topped for the bags but,
you could just use a rectangle and fold it in half. The
School Bus and Back pack came from the Doodlecharms
cartridge and were cut at 2 1/2 inches.

The apple card was cut at 5 inches from the
Create a Critter cartridge. Don't you love that
little tale sticking out. What could it be?
Yes, it is a cute little worm. I also used
Create a Critter to cut her out. She is cut
at 2 1/2 inches and backed with a black
shadow. I added a few pop dots to give
her a little lift off the card. Since this
cartridge doesn't include a card option I
took out my poor neglected Gyspy and added
2 apples to the mat, flipped one of them and
then used the wonderful weld option. I can't
tell you how much I love the weld option on
my Gyspy. To get the green on the inside of
the card I cut one more apple with the
blackout feature.
With this being the first year that both my
daughters are going to be in Middle School
together I though I would celebrate with some
Blog Candy for you. If you would love
for me to send you some Blog Candy please
leave me some Blog Love below.
~I am giving away a sample of the DCWV
Grade School 4 1/2 X 6 1/2 stack,
a package of apple stickers (that any teacher
would love) a pack of school ribbon &
one of the best black pens money can buy
(at least I love them) ~
Queen of my Craftroom is having some blog candy also.
The sponsors for the hop are: Karbar digital stamps,
Jen's digi stamps & Hambo stamps. Please leave me
a comment on my blog to be entered into the drawing.
All of us in the hop will be drawing one name from
the comments and sending that name off to Michelle.
She will then draw from those names who the winner
will be. The drawing will end Sunday at 8:00 p.m.
I hope you enjoyed my projects.
