 Please welcome one of my Best Blogging Friends Georgiana from Carson's Creations! 

 Hello Crafty Friends,

Carri asked my to showcase her skittles and I jumped at the chance to share. I have been using Carri's skittles since she created them and I have truly enjoyed the variety of colors and flare it adds to my projects.

  Here is my Skittle's project...

I used Rudolph Red glitter skittles around my Vintage Lace Spellbinder, which is adhered with Zip Dry to the front of my boutique (treat) box. This would be perfect for an end-of-the-year teacher gift.

 I cut out circles (cut at 3/4" which fits the bottom of the Hershey Kiss) and then stamped each one with A+. A glue pen was used to adhere each circle to the bottom of the Hershey Kiss. I used crimped red scrap paper to fill the bottom of the clear treat box. 

 The twine bow secures the top flap.

 Materials:

white, red, and black card stock

Spellbinders ~ Vintage Lace Motifs

Give a Hoot Cricut cartridge ~ apple (p. 35) cut at 2"

Plantin Schoolbook Cricut cartridge ~ circles cut at 3/4"

Pink by Design stamps ~ School is Cool set

skittles by Carri

red and white twine by American Craft

Time for a HUGE give-a-way!!! Almost 1000 Follower Celebration! Lots o' BLOG CANDY!

Hello Crafty Friends,

Wow!

What does 1,000 mean to you?

Do you think of money? How about the number of texts you send every month? Maybe the number of crafty projects you have made? 1,000 means something different to me!

Can you believe I have almost reached that milestone of 1,000 followers? Both Georgiana at Carson's Creations, and I are super excited to offer this unique giveaway since we are sharing this special celebration together. 

We have decided to team up again as we have many times in the past. We have planned hops, challenges, design teams, and shared many days supporting each other's crafty addictions. This time we want to celebrate 1,000 followers with some crafting goodies. Once we each reach 1,000 followers (we need less than 10 followers each), we will pick two lucky people for prizes. I will pick a winner who will receive a prize pack from me and a prize pack from Georgiana. Georgiana will pick a winner and her winner will receive a prize pack from her and one from me!   That means two people will get two prize packs!


If you are the winner from my blog you will win this from me and this from Georgiana:

 

 If you are the winner from Georgiana's blog then you will win this from Georgiana and this from me:
