My first craft post

I wanted to show you what I made for the last day of school. I went to a Stampin' Up party and these were demonstrated, and I thought they were ideal treat boxes to give to Tabitha's helpers at school and her teacher. I made them and filled them with a selection of chocolates. I also made one for a little girl in Tabitha's class, who is the closest thing she has to a friend. I wanted to make sure she knew how much I appreciated what she did for Tabitha every day.

They are 2468 boxes, made from Very Vanilla cardstock, and stamped with the Simply Said set. The ribbon is Chocolate Chip, and the sentiments are from the Trendy Trees set of stamps.

Once I'd decided to do these for Tabitha, Ellie decided she needed some for her teachers too, so I had to make 10 in total. Here are the ones I made for her.

Two of these are in Whisper white, with three in Very Vanilla. They are stamped with either Simply Said, or Trendy Trees, and the ribbon fixing is Chocolate Chip again.

My husband told me I should label them so that people knew they had been made and not bought, but I don't have a stamp. I told him if he thought that, he should buy me a personalised stamp, after all there are websites that supply them. I'm now waiting to see if he took the hint. Fingers crossed. x
