Nifty Gifty Nuggets



I was looking on Instagram the other day and someone had posted a couple of these gifty gifts using Hershey's nuggets.   Hey......I can do that!  It's like going to a craft show and not buying anything because you look at it and say - hey I can do that.......and then sadly never do.  Well, these were looking way too easy so yes, I can do that!  And did.  At Thanksgiving I made a six of them for my daughter to give her immediate staff at school - her assistant principal, secretary, etc.   Not a problem...........until she liked them and asked if I'd make them for all her teachers and staff.   Um...............how many are we talking about........about 60 to 70. 

Well, feast your eyes on 74 of these nifty gifty nuggets!  Terrible picture because I was using my phone and not great lighting but you get the picture.   They really were easy to make and I didn't even eat a single one.  Proud of myself on that for sure!  It was tempting though.   

Now we're talking snippets.........in fact, we have exactly 592 snippets of paper and ribbon!!!!! 

Thanks for stopping by...............

Have a wonderful Christmas and New Year. Thanks to everyone for all the beautiful Christmas cards I received this year.   I'm taking a little time and won't be back for a while.  My daughter and I are taking a mother/daughter trip (adventure) for about a week and then I may head on down to the southern part of Texas for a few days.  I'll be back though.

Just a Very Quick Post


I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! All of my company is now gone - which is good - and bad. We loved seeing everyone but it's also kinda nice when things are back to normal again. We were suppose to have my husbands sister and brother in law come in today and stay until Sunday but they had to cancel the trip.

SO, I'm back to stampin!!!

This is just a quick post showing you some of the acrylic frame note holders and RSVP pens to match that I made for a couple of the nieces and nephews..........I used various paper and stamps. These are so easy to put together and fun to make. The instructions can be found on SCS.

As I said, this is a quick post.....because I'm off to my craft room for a day of stamping!! Whopee!

Thanks for stopping by..............

The Critters


I FINALLY finished making all five of the Sock Monkeys! YES! It was very hard to get a good picture of these little critters as their tails kept getting in the way. Anyway, they are all finished in time for Christmas. I have never been so sick of Sock Monkeys in my life! This started out when one of the granddaughters said she wanted one for Christmas. Then my daughter called and said the other granddaugher wanted one - and then my husband said that his three granddaughters would probably like one too! Yikes! The first one was kinda fun but then after that they just got to be a chore. And you know what - THEY"RE REALLY CREEPY! As I would finish one I sat it on the dresser (because the dog kept wanting to get to them for play time) in the bedroom. Waking up in the morning and seeing these things was just down right SCARY!

But, like I said, I'm through with them and now can get back to stamping. Yeah!

Thanks for stopping by..........
