Hostess Appreciation Party Goodies


Happy Monday, peeps!  Hope you had a good weekend.....we had another down (John) with a stomach bug and I still sound like a croaking toad, but I feel better, well enough to have my Hostess Appreciation event!  We were missing a couple due to illness, but we still had fun with six stampers in attendance!  I thought I would share the projects we made after our lunch; sorry I have no photos of my girls or the food.....camera forgotten!!!  Anyway, I HAD to make something with Hey, Chick....I encouraged them to do some watercoloring on this card:


A little detail of this cutie:


Then we made a candy favor (at first glance, it looks like a ketchup bottle!) using Jars of Love, Sealed with Love and Sending Love DSP along with SU's 2x8" cello bags:



I notice my topper got bent on the way home!  Oh well!  This was a fun project, especially filled with "kisses"!!  Last, we made a Valentine's card--I probably got this from Pinterest, but I didn't save it, so I don't know to whom to give the credit, sorry!  We did ours in Pool Party and Calypso Coral so we could use A Little Foxy DSP for the envelopes!

One of the things we always do is a hand-stamped gift exchange.  We played a game and passed around the gifts, and this is the one I got....my gift-giver was Audrey, the granddaughter of my friend Billie (and daughter of Billie's daughter, Jill....who are all wonderful stampers), and Audrey is only ten!  I love the topper she created....


Check out this cool 3D sticker she used:


And I am pretty sure I know someone who will LOVE those lollipops!  The gift I created seems rather tame after Audrey's!  It's a little note pad covered with Fruit Stand DSP with a matching pen:


It used the new set Day at the Beach along with Labeler Alphabet!  If you would like info about any of the projects, email me!!!  No pix of Cassidy today, she was away for the weekend, so check back tomorrow!!   Have a blessed day!
