Christmas

Here’s the cute treats Abby took to school to share with some of her friends.  Notice they say, “Time to chill” instead of Merry Christmas.  Abby and her friends are juniors in high school and are so excited for winter break to get a “break” from their hard classes so she thought “Time to chill” would be appropriate.

I wish I had come up with this idea, but it is a total CASE (Copy and Steal Everything) which is very common in crafting circles.

I used Wilton Pretzel Bags and cut off 2 inches.

Family update- My husband and two older boys raced from Seattle, WA to Iowa in 33 hours through horrible weather.  I was so happy when they arrived home at 6:30am today.  The boys learned how to put chains on the car tires, how to navigate icy mountain roads and how to survive with three of them together in a very small space.  All life lessons that will serve them well.

Hope you have a very Merry Christmas!

Blessings,

Beth 🙂

 

 

 

 

 

 

It was getting late last night, when Steve told me he wanted to take fudge to some coworkers in the morning.  He already had the fudge made, so I started making boxes.  Good thing these don’t take long.  I used various papers from Merry Moments Designer Series Paper.  When I show you the pictures, you’ll see why I told you how late it was.  I didn’t realize until he had already taken the fudge to work, that all my pictures are blurry.  I’m going to show you anyway because the boxes are cute and I want to show you the two tone bows.  I really liked how these turned out.

I think anything with polka dots is cute, blurry or not!

Which one do you like?

The fudge is 2×2 squares wrapped in Saran Wrap.

After I had the six boxes finished, Steve told me he miscounted and needed one more.  You can tell in the picture the count stayed steady at six.  I’ll make more tomorrow.

How are your Christmas preparations going?

Blessings,

Beth 🙂
