St. Patrick's Pots of Gold

I just wanted to share these very fun little 'Pots of Gold' I gave out to my boys' teachers and all my neighbors.

These are so sweet and lots of fun to make. I painted a 3" terra cotta pot with black craft paint and then did a 2nd coat with a metallic black to give it a bit of a shine. Don't you think the Leprechauns pots of gold have some shine to them? I think they must. ;)


Then I hot glued some random different green ribbons to the rim and added a button shamrock and a little tag that I created with The Print Shop.


Inside is some gold shredded paper filler and 3 gold hershey's nuggets and a chocolate gold coin. Are you aware that it is darn HARD to find those silly gold coin candies!!?? I went to 8 stores not to mention, the dozen that I looked at on line to find them! That is a little obsessed I know, but the pots HAD to have gold coins!! ;)


I wrapped them up in cellophane a tied them with a sweet Irish Blessing that I found online. My kiddo's had a lot of fun handing these out to their teachers and knocking on ALL the (18) neighbor's doors to wish them Happy St. Patrick's Day. That's the best part. It's so fun for me to make these little goodies and then it's so fun to surprise people and give them a little something that they totally didn't expect!


Thanks for checking in with me today and May God bless you and fill your home and heart with gladness and cheer! ;)

Oh ~ I'll be posting my April class soon so keep checking back!

Just Sharing a Cute Baby Shower Order I'm working on

These are gonna be so cute when their all done. This is for an Etsy customer of mine. And they want between 100-125. I'll probably be tired of them when I'm all done, but what a darling treat they will be at the shower! I love all these colors! This paper was my customers choice, it is from Echo Park their new Little Girl's line.


All these bright, fun colors. Love 'em! Definitely lots of stamping here. These will also be topped with some ribbon, a flower and tag.

Lions and Tigers and Bears...Oh My!

These are a fun little favor that I sell on my Etsy site. They hold two Hershey's Milk Chocolate Nuggets. Yum! And they make a big hit at Baby Showers! The paper for this set is My Mind's Eye, from their Alphabet Soup line. I just wanted to share them with ya because they turned out so cute!

Thanks again for the order April, hope you have an awesome Shower!

Same with this one. I also added a glitter brad, lovely. And I used the Designer Buttons ~ Subtles collection. Oh these are amazing!

This is the Eat Chocolate stamp set. Too fun! I also added some liquid glass to the chocolates to make them look even yummy-er and I sprayed the Rose Red card stock (after embossing) with some homemade glitter spritz. I love that effect.

And this card just makes me laugh. It is SO me. lol! I am a list person and a chocolate person and having 3 young kiddo's sometimes this is how I feel. ;)
