Dollar tree finds

Here are a few more things I got at dollar tree! I just love this place

I got a photo frame to make a little project for Ethan, baby stickers for a journal I am planning on making, a baby rattle punch out, a pack of 4 little composition books, poster board (not in the pic) a little drawer thing that I thought would look cute in the shabby room (I plan on making a corner of the room my craft area) and a 2008 graduation tassel for my nephew Michael. You just got to love Dollar Tree!

Happy birthday mil!

Tomorrow is my mother in law Shelley's 50th birthday! We took her out celebrate on Saturday. Here are some pix


Here is her gift all wrapped up! I used music sheet and the pretty ribbon and bow from Dollar Tree.


<-----The card I made her.














The book mark I made her -->










I decorated a lunch bag for her, made here a little goodie bag. Put the gift, card, book mark and a baggie full of candy and treats!

She was really excited about the card!



I think she liked her gift too!

A day of crafting (yesterday)

My niece was over yesterday and we decided to do some crafting. I am working on a few bookmarks for mothers day so she decided she wanted to make one too. Here are some pix.....





This is her expression after being asked if she wanted to do some art's and crafts.











Trying to get the book mark of the proper size.












Just a little off the top
















And a little off the sides......














here you have it folks, a nice bookmark. Any bids?

Dollar tree finds

Greg and I made a mad dash to Dollar Tree this morn (mad dash because we had 10 mins before he had to leave for work) I needed a birthday stamp for a card I am making for my mother in law. Needless to say I brought home a few other things....... and no stamp!

Here are a few of my finds.


<-----March's BH&G I know I'm a month late, but I don't have it and it was only $1. So I can't complain!






<------ A pretty pink ribbon for her present. Not sure if you could tell, but the ribbon has yellow flowers and blue butterflies, it is so pretty! The colors are so cute, blue purple, pink, and yellow....I think I will go back for more. They had a few different colors other than pink.






<---- I thought these bags would look nice (cut up of course) and framed for the master bedroom which will be a french vintage black/white theme. Now all we need are 2-4 pretty white frames, or frames to paint white.....can you say shopping!!!







<----- since I couldn't find any "happy birthday" stamps, I thought I would get a card that says "happy birthday" and cut it out. This one has a dragonfly on it, so I had to get it. We (I should say I) came home with poster board for a bookmark I want to make for her, glue sticks since I just used up my last one and double sided tape!
