St. Patrick's Day

For St. Patrick's Day, we normally wear a touch of green and that's about it.  This year, I decided to impart some fun leading up to and on this Irish Holiday.

I've come to enjoy Pinterest and came across a neat idea for teacher gifts - here.  I put a twist on them and made them for my son's class.





This Sizzix Suitcase Die works nicely with my Cuttlebug.

For the 4 leaf clovers, I used my MS Four Leaf Clover punch and punch a few plant leaves.

Inside the suitcase….some tasty pop rocks!

Spring Ahead

To me, the time change is the first sign of Spring!  I'm anxious to create and find more time to do more of the timings that I enjoy.

Recently, a fellow Basketball Mom tore her ACL - OUCH!  She is such an outgoing person and really gets into the games even more that I do.  So it is really a set bak back for her to be down for the next couple of months.

I asked the parents of the team to help me in filling a "sweet treat" box for her.  I had to top it off with a quick card inspired by the emergence of Spring.



How are you welcoming Spring?
