ROLO "PENCILS" WITH PAPER ERASER AND KISS LEAD

A little first day of school treat.  Simple as can be - take a nickel and use as a templete for the "earser," cut strips of the same paper for the rest of the eraser, cut a thin strip of foil for the band and score yellow paper for the "pencil."  I used glue dots and this came together very fast.

ORANGE SHERBET PRETZELS

 

Easy peasy - used Snyders little pretzels and Wilton Orange Crème Candy Melts - the melts are limited edition and not available in stores (order from Wilton) - heat the melts per instructions and dip the pretzels and let them cool on wax paper.  Think next time I will do strawberry Crème.  Yummo!

TWINS BIRTHDAY INVITATION

 

Hard to believe that the twins will be six on February 19th.  They are having seperate parties after their birthday and on the 18th. they are being dropped off at Grammie & Poppa's for a "Birthday Day" with Grammie & Poppa.  These are the invitations and I  hope to drop them off to them today. This one was easy but took a little time.  Ticket graphic found online, used a graphic from the Graphics's Fairy for the kiddos and just cut out a photo of them and used glue dot to adhere.  The "basket" is a paper cup, I printed out some paper then added a little glue to the lip and sparkles, folded paper for the fan and added ribbon. Pipe cleaners from Hobby Lobby make the handle & the trim.  Used a scalloped punch for the birthday age & printed out a tag with the six and using Jim Holtz Distress Ink "Vintage Photo" for the edges.
