EOSter goodies

This is another little treat that I made this Easter for my friends!! I used the EOS lip balms! They look like Easter eggs, so it is perfect for the occasion!  All I did was put it in a little clear baggie, and threw in some confettit, tied it with a cute ribbon and added a tag! Viola!  That's it! Smiles for everyone!  EOS smiles that is!!:) 

What's your fav EOS flavor?? Do you like any of the other products? 

Cheers!

Spring Garden

 

This weeks challenge, is Spring!   I made this garden as part of a baby shower gift.  The "flowers" are upside down See's lollipops.  I decorated them to look like flowers and put them all together in a larger box to look like a garden.  This gift is for the parents to take with them to the hospital to give to their visitors.  The vibrant colors and different flowers and butterflies reminds me of Spring!!

Some-bunny is coming

Little bunny foofoo, hoping through the forest..The Easter bunny is on his/her way!  Here is a goodie bag that I made, I'm working on a whole bunch of different things for Easter.  I can't believe that it's next week already?! I love all the Easter treats!! There's so much to chose from this time of year!  Peeps, Whoppers, Jelly Beans, Eggums(my fav!), Chocolate bunnies! Eek!! What is your favorite Easter delight?!  Stay tuned for more Easter treats!

Collage Fun

Just playing around with some new things that I'm learning how to do.  Wanted to see how it looks, hoping to punch things up on the blog.
Shown are some gift bags that I made for a customer last year.  It's a nice way to add some fun to your packaging!
Cheers!

Turtles & Frogs Baby Shower

The invites

 These pics were from a baby shower that I threw last year, the theme was Turtles and Frogs for a baby girl!

The decor

 Here are some decorations, fun and festive balloons!  I'm so mad that I didn't get better pics of the rest of the balloons.

The food

 Since it was a co-ed shower, to make things the father to be ordered bentos for everyone, we also had a lot of other yummy delights!

The favors

 Here's another version of the box with the lollipop treats inside!  Bright and fun! Makes me smile just looking at the colors!

The table

 Some table decor, to add a little something extra!  Turtles, frogs, lily pads, and flowers.

The goodies

 Here are more treats that were on a different table.  Pink & Purple M&M's in mini champagne bottles, more lollipops and sleeves filled with peach frog gummi candy!(oomph featured these yummy treats, and actually inspired this post)

The gifts

 Lots of gifts for the new parents!! Yes that is Christmas wrap! haha! You know guys...I guess we can't ask for much, at least it's wrapped right?!

The games

Once again, leave it to guys to do something inappropriate with an innocent baby shower game!

All in all the party was a success, minus the fact that the mom to be, missed half of the shower because she went in to labor!  Yes! She had the baby that evening, one month early.  Even better, it was on Father's day!  Best gift a father could get!! Now almost one year later, her 1st birthday is on the horizon! 
Cheers!

Sakura Reception Bucket

 This weeks challenge was anything goes, this is what I came up with.  It's a alternative to a reception box.  It could also be used for a centerpiece or even for a gift box.  I love the pinks and browns!  This is very simple and easy to make, and best of all it doesn't take much time to complete.  Check out the rest of the teams entries for this week! 
Cheers!

Birthday Box

Birthday Boxes!  This is a fun alternative to a birthday card!  It's a 3-D way to wish that someone special a very happy birthday!  It's filled with bright confetti and happy birthday sentiment opens up to a mini banner.  I've included a card on the top so you can write your special message.  If your gift is small enough, it might even be able to fit in the box!  
Cheers!

March into Spring!

It's Spring! I've been busy trying to think of different things for Easter this year.  This is a spin off of something that I made last year.  I'm still trying to tweak it and make it a little more exciting.  Last year I filled it with treats similar to the last pic.  I could fit 6 of these lollies in the box, so it made a great gift for offices and co-workers!  This time around, I'm not sure if I want to just fill it with grass and treats and make individual boxes or make something similar to last year.  I'm still thinking of how to advance this!  I love being able to use all the colors, it really makes everything POP and look really fun!!  Stay tuned for the finished product!
Cheers!

Girls Day Goodies

I know it's a little late, but here's my girls day post.  Since I'm not so traditional, I made butter mochi instead of chichi dango mochi.  I LOVE butter mochi! It's soooooo delish!  Here's my packaging for my girls day treats.  I figured since it's an "asian" thing, I will go with asian-ish packaging!?  I used a miniature take out container, and just added a simple tag and ribbon to cutesy it up a little!  I treated myself for girls day by buying a Purple Hello Kitty bow bracelet, that I hope to wear soon!  Stay tuned!

Cheers!

Hinamatsuri

March 3 is Girls Day!! Hinamatsuri!! This is a little goody bag that I made last year for girls day.  It was just a little something small, and I filled it with candy.  Small and simple, but sweet and lovely!  I'm thinking what should I do for this year?  I recently got some new asian themed stamps, that I will surely be using!!
Cheers!
