College Care Package Workshop

Oh my, I can't believe it's been over a month since my last posting.  I have just been so busy!  Anyway, today I co-hosted a College Care Package Workshop for 10 ladies.  The projects I presented were a pizza box that held a Pizza Hut gift card from the TBBM cartridge, a wrapper for a bag of microwave popcorn, a wrapper for a king size candy bar, a pencil made from Rollo candy, a powdered drink  pouch that hung over a water bottle, a paper frame for a 4x6 picture and a "welcome home" banner.  I love how everything turned out, especially the banner.  Here are some pictures:

Chocolate Candy Bar

One thing you'll learn about me is that I have a huge sweet tooth, especially when it comes to chocolate!  I try to keep something chocolate around because I get cravings each afternoon.  Usually a few M&M's (sorted into different colors, of course) will do.  Sometimes, however, I need something a little more...substantive.  While at the grocery store last week, I was trying to fight off my craving but ended up buying a pack of the large Hershey chocolate bars.  Not the regular size ones, we're talking the BIG BOYS.  After scarfing down the first one, I thought it best to get the others out of the house and fast!  I made this cute little wrapper for my son.  The dog cut came from my very first cartridge, Paper Pups.  I still love this cartridge and use it quite a bit.  Some googley eyes and a black Stickled nose finishes him off.  I think he'll be popped up on an Action Wobble for the next wrapper so that he actually waves. 

Unfortunately, I didn't make it to the post office and I ate the chocolate the next afternoon.
