Do you need a quick and easy little fall treat for school or your Thanksgiving celebration next week? Well I have one for you.
I made these for all the girls at the fall Stamp, Scrap & Create retreat. A little surprise for them during the weekend.
I bought a bag of wrapped mints – I used to buy York but they don’t package theirs this way anymore – darn – so instead I found some at the local drug store – some other brand wrapped in silver.
- Die cut leaves from Sweater Weather Designer Paper using the Autumn Accents Bigz Die and the Big Shot machine
- For the bottom I cut coordinating card stock with the same leaf
- Use Mini glue dots to attach the leaf to either side of the mint
- Tie a piece of jute twine around with a knot or ribbon. I used a left over piece of jute from the Build a Banner Kit.
Make up a bunch in no time!
And just a quick personal note. Today is Kyle’s 22nd birthday. Here is a picture of the two of us from last summer.
My little boy is all grown up! And he will be starting his first real full time job in 2014. I’m excited for him but will miss him since he will be on the other side of the US. He is moving to California. I guess I’ll be racking up some frequent flyer miles in the years to come.
Thanks for stopping by today!
