TWO FUN THINGS...

for this beautiful Monday morning!


First - if you're looking for fun and easy Easter ideas, you've come to the right place. This week Brenda and I will be throwing out all kinds of cute and easy last-minute ideas.

Fun things for your friends.
Cute stuff for your neighbors.
Goodies for your kids' baskets.
Or general pretties for the spring season.

All quick, all easy, all doable and all FUN!

The first is from my crafty-side-kick! She made up these stinkin' adorable candy bar wrappers to give to some of her special friends this week. Because who doesn't like chocolate - wrapped in cuteness! I'm SURE I am on her "special friend" list - but since mine HAS NOT arrived yet I'm assuming she chose not to mail chocolate to Arizona. Because that's rarely a good decision!

For these she used: one big honkin' candy bar, Scrapy Land's Exclusive QK Bunny, QK Banana Split font, QK Flower Doo Dads, Cricut Cartridge Plantain Schoolbook (for the grass), Cricut Cartridge My World (for the fence) and her Cricut Design Studio software to weld the grass pieces and the fence pieces together!

Cute idea, cute design and cute end result! If you put one of these in your child's Easter basket, you could save the wrapped and transfer it to their scrapbook. It becomes a scrapbook page border and all you've got to add are the photographs! LOVE IT!

The other item for today...a video! Now don't get excited - it's not my lost project video from last week - SORRY! It's a demonstration video from CHA. We held on to it until these awesome Sizzix dies were in stock.

The video shows how to use the Chair Pop-Up, but Sizzix released a bunch of fun pop-ups - and they are all IN STOCK!

Thanks for rocking out with me yesterday. The response to THE TWIST has been awesome. I can't wait to see what pages AND cards get submitted this week. I'll turn you all into card makers yet!

If you don't frequent the Scrapy Land Message board - I started a post asking for more song requests. I want to assemble a crazy-fun play list for the National Scrapbook Day Virtual Crop. So leave a comment here if you've got some song suggestions! TOTALLY FUN!

I'm headed out for a hair-cut - it's time for "summer short". So don't be shocked when you see me on this week's Scrapy Land LIVE! Short in my book means SHORT!


Stay tuned for date and time of LIVE!

I'm here for your habit...

Beautiful candy bar wrapper. So clever. Thanks for sharing. Guess Florida isn't on her mailing list either, too hot I guess, lol. For some reason my computer won't let me see the video. It says it's private. Will try again later.

SORRY GIRLS! I hadn't made the video "public" - but it was letting me watch it cuz DUH - I'm logged in.

Thanks everyone for telling me - I just fixed it so it should be watchable by all of you now!

ENJOY!
