Bunny Bums!! So Stinkin' Cute!

I saw these on Pinterest and said oh my I just have to make these.  Guess what now my son will have two treats to take to school this Easter.  The original one that I saw had the circle treat cup that Stampin' Up! carries in the design but I had some of the retired heart treat cups that I needed to use up so here is what I came up with.

Aren't these so adorable.  All I did was punch two 2 1/2" circles, two large ovals, and then punched out the heart in one circle.  Fill with candy, adhere together and FUN!  Decorate with a stamp and a little bunny tail and you have a cute treat to brightens someones day this Easter.

School Easter Treats

I am getting a head start on getting treats ready for my son's third grade class for Easter.  One would think that 3rd graders would flip over candy as a gift but no.  These kids love pencils!!  So I am always on the lookout for cool pencils that my son can give as gifts for holidays to his class.  And to package pencils Stampin' Up! has the perfect cello bag that will fit two pencils.  To decorate I must say I have a new favorite.  I love the two new tag topper punches that are in the spring catalog.  Here is how I threw together a quick and cute little treat for the kiddos at school.

I found cute little pencils with owls and hearts for the girls and robots for the boys.  I lest some space on the tag for my son to write a note on there for his classmates.  The kids will be so excited.

Stampin' Up! Flower Fair Kit Card Set

I am definitely trying to get in the Spring spirit.  We warmed up here in Alabama for a few days but we are getting set for yet another cool down.  So I figure if mother nature won't help me out, Stampin' Up! will!!  So I pulled out my Flower Fair Simply Scrappin' kit that I have been holding on to for a while and decided to get some spring cards made.  I threw in a few sheets of Whisper White and some stamp sets that I already had and here is what I was able to create.  To top it off I even had some DSP left when I finished these 10 cards.  That means more can be made later :)

If you would like to have your very own Flower Fair Simply Scrappin' kit, then you are in luck but you have to act fast.  The kit is currently on the clearance rack for only $6.39.  When it is on the clearance rack it is only available while supplies last.  So hurry HERE to order your very own kit and see what you can come up with.

Here is what is included in the kit:

 Includes 8 sheets of card stock, 2 of ea. color, 8-1/2" x 11"; 6 sheets double-sided paper, 3 of ea. design, 8" x 8"; 2 sheets card stock
