Homemade Hot Cocoa Gifts

Every winter I make a huge batch of homemade hot cocoa mix. Danée will be graduating with her Associates degree before she moves on to a different university to complete her Bachelors. So she wanted to take a small gift to her professors to let them know that she enjoyed being in their class and this is what she wanted to give to them.
Let me know what you think.

Clean Water Mission's Program

The boys and girls in our Children's Church are competing against each other to try and raise $300.00 for clean water. For each dollar the kids raise they get to put one little person on the wall. For every dollar they raise it will give clean water to one person for one year. Our church is small and we run on average between 15 and 20 kids a week so $300.00 is a pretty big goal but one we think that we can accomplish.
This is a perfect example of why an electronic die cutting machine and a manual die cutting machine are something that every crafter should have in their craft space. I could have used my cricut and my Every Day Paper Doll Cricut Cartridge but I need 300 of these little people. So I wouldn't even want to think about how many of my mats I would have had to went through to do that amount. Instead I used my Big Shot, some Sizzix dies and a bunch of my scraps.

A Bag of Turkey Poop - Just What Everyone Wants. . .NOT!

Another super fun and quick project. A very kind lady from church invited our family over to her house for Thanksgiving. She knows that I have been very sick with my blood pressure skyrocketing dangerously high and then plummeting dangerously low. So she didn't want me to have to worry about cooking a big meal. Which I thought was so sweet of her. So I wanted to make something I could give her to say "Thank You" and give her a little smile at the same time.
I hope that she likes it and I hope you like it too.

Hi everyone, I wanted to share these candy bar covers in time for you to get the things you need, encase you want to do them with your children's classes like I am going to do. I don't have a craft store near me, so I have to make plans to go to somewhere where I can get the fleece.

I Mustache You a Question Card

This was a super quick card and a lot of fun to make. I hope you like it and please let me know what you think about it.
Mariah and her mustache picture with her face still covered in pizza sauce. Don't worry though, you can hear her singing from the bath tub during my video. LOL So she is all cleaned up now.

Jesse liked Mariah's picture so much that he had to have one taken with the mustache too. There is no way I am showing you the picture of me with the mustache on though. LOL
 
I used my Peachy Keen Stamps for the face and My Creative Time stamps and dies for the sentiments on the inside of the card and the mustache. Let me know what you think about it.

Quick and Easy Goodie Bags

Hi all, I was getting ready to go to my doctors and realized this would be the last time that I would see them until after the holiday season. So I wanted to make a quick goodie bag to give my doctor and her nurse thanking them for the good care that they give me. The bags were so quick and easy and had time permitted, I could have really jazzed these bags up. Let me know what you think.

Sympathy Card

He everyone. This is a sympathy card I made for a friend of mine. I am not very good at sympathy cards and really struggle when I have to make them. I always tell myself that I'm going to try and make some so that I can have them in my card box for when a time like this happens. I won't have to try and make a card when I'm upset or worried about a friend. Well, that sounds so good in theory but I have yet to execute it. I don't handle death well and I don't like to even think about the people I love being in pain, so I just can't bring myself to work on sympathy cards. This is for a very good friend and I wanted her to know that I care, so I tried my best to make a nice card. Please let me know what you think.
Thanks for visiting me today and happy crafting.
