I used 2 of the Event Freebies to make these cute treat bags!

These add on layers fit our SO JACKED Handled Bag perfectly.

They are perfect for the Star Wars fans in your life, or if you are hosting a party.  Makes great treat favors!

So of course I added Jaded Blossom goodies to complete my treat bags!

I used Candy Wars or the sentiments and candy bottoms --- filled with Dove candies... which I never had before and BOY ARE THEY YUMMY!!

The sentiments are stamped on Mini Tag Dies 2 and then I used some twine and ribbon to accent them further!

Squarey Monsters - I see Dead Pixels ---

Hi everyone! Annie here from CreatingAnniething!
Today I wanted to introduce you to an amazing new Squarey Monster.....

His name is Pixelpus!

Now here is a little backstory about Pixelpus and what he is all about!

This is the one-of-a-kind creature who eats pixels inside all kinds of digital displays. Your monitor, your smart phone, your tablet even your television — none of these are safe. Pixelpus is currently green, but he can be red or blue too. It really depends on which pixels he’s recently eaten more recently. After all, you are what you eat.

So in keeping with his description, you can see I kept my Pixelpus green..but added him to a red & blue color scheme for when/if he changes his colors!

The Squarey Monster Pixelpus will be available on Friday...

I placed him on the Ornate Label Card Base.

Since Pixelpus eats pixels, I thought this sentiment worked AWESOME with him...

its from the NERD set at Jaded Blossom and I added it to a Candy Charm and Banners Die.

I added some fun embellishing with Doodle Bug Sequins and some cute twine from my stash!

Hee hee.. This is one of my FAVORITE Pixar Shorts

We Love ALEC the BUNNY!!

My son, named Alec, also loved this when he was younger since NO ONE really had his name, it was always ALEX.. ha ha

so here is my take on Presto.. 

I made a Magician's hat for Alec to pop out of!

The magician hat is available in the store TODAY, you can get it here!

This hop is ONLY for Alec the bunny, free today ONLY

Here is a top shot of him in the top of the hat... I had some chocolate carrots left over from easter in my stash (gross , I know)...and I added some candy stamps to the bottom of kisses.

Here Alec is fully out of the hat! TA-DA!

3- Go to the REQUEST Files link once you have completed these steps at the END of the hop.  Fill the form out correctly and wait for your files to be delivered!

And now for my Project!

I decided to make BLU!  I admit I have not seen this movie but one time so my memory is not great on it..and I have yet to see Rio2..but when I saw Blu in the Pith Helmet, I just KNEW I wanted to make him!

I thought it was funny for him to say It's A Jungle Out there..when he is a tropical bird in the jungle!  

So Blu is free for today ONLY...and I placed him on the Palm Tree Wave Tube holder to get the effect that he is in the jungle. I filled the 1 X 6 Plastic Tube with Fruit & Nut Trail Mix.  Stamped a great sentiment from Go Wild on  the Ticket book Die (shortened it slightly).  I wrapped some Midnight Blue Stripe twine aound the base and tied a bow!  Oooh I added the grass border bottom from the Spring Dies!
