Are you on the number bandwagon?

Well here is a little cuteness that you can find at Michaels.

Pencils with numbers!

They are in the dollar bins, but be sure to check on the kids dollar aisle also as my store has dollar items in two different places.  Should you be in the market for letters, they have those also….and all for $1.

Simple Marshmallow Pops

I love making little sweets for holidays. So for Valentine’s Day, I started with these marshmallow lollipops.

Well I should have said that I love dipping little sweets for the holidays.

Caramel Pecan Chocolate Vanilla Swirl Marshmallow Pop!

So easy….and everyone always appreciates a cute sweet treat.

I tried melting chocolate chips for dipping and have to say that I much prefer the chocolate wafers that you can find at the craft store. They are so much easier and less finicky.

So if you need something quick, simple, and easy to do get creative. I used chocolate vanilla swirl marshmallow, but there are so many flavors now like strawberry, regular, toasted coconut, and vanilla. You can dip in so many different things like caramel, butterscotch, chocolate, white chocolate, and the many different color chocolate wafers. Finally, sprinkle colored sugar, confetti, decorations, nuts, or coconut! The possibilities are endless!

Cake pops or brownie pops next, hmmm?

Distressed Tags

I love paper crafting and have tried several times over the years to distress paper with tea and coffee staining.  But, I am loving walnut ink lately and distressing paper tags.  So here are some recent tags that I made to put in my etsy store.  But truth be known, I use them for my own personal little gifts!  There is nothing better than seeing someone appreciate a homemade gift that you spent time making just for them.

I love the heart tag now with Valentine’s Day so close, but think it would be great for many other occasions.

Simple and elegant bride….

How cute is the expecting mommy on this tag?

Well that is what I have been up to in the paper craft department. Having so much fun and can’t wait to get some of my other projects done!
