Pirate Booty

Hello their crafty peeps!
How is everyone surviving the winter?  Just got a little bit of snow here yesterday into this morning...but I hear there is a wopper of a storm headed this way and we could get as much as 2 feet! Yikes!!!

Today I have a cute little treat that can be used for Valentine's Day...or anytime really.  It's actually a little different project for me as it uses something other than candy :).  I've been trying to eat healthier lately and I thought this was a great alternative to giving something that is loaded with sugar and calories...plus it went perfectly with the sentiment that I wanted to use!  Bonus!!!  I had seen these snacks in the store before but I've never tried them.  Of course I had to do a little taste test so that I knew what I was going to be giving to people was actually something they might enjoy.  I'm happy to say they are pretty tasty and the ingredient list isn't a mile long!

Before I cut the bag I resized it length wise to make it a little taller so it would be big enough to hold the bag of Pirate Booty!  I am entering this project into this month's  SVG cutting Files Challenge

Snowballs for Sale

Hey there crafty friends!
It has been so long since I've been able to do anything crafty!  Life gets a bit crazy, but I found myself with a bit of spare time today and I knew just what I was going to do with it!!!

Winter can be a bit depressing, especially where I live!  Short, cold days and lots of snow!  I thought a cute little project would be just the thing to brighten the day!




I filled the little box with my favorite little minty treats.  Thought this would be a really cute container to leave on my desk for the winter!!!

The box itself is a die from Jaded Blossom.  I cut 2 of them and connected them to create a slightly bigger box.
