New England Patriots "S"

Oh my...did I just make something with the New England patriots.  Normally, I wouldn't do this.  It actually pained me while I was making it.  However, I knew it was going to a great kid for his birthday.  My son's friend turned 7 this past weekend and he is a huge Patriots fan.  I thought I'd make him this letter to hang in his room.  I used the Sports Mania cartridge for the football and "touchdown" Then I used Plantin Schoolbook for the stars.  I also used mod podge to glue down and seal all the paper.  It also gave it a nice glossy look.  For the Patriots logo I printed it out on my computer and cut around it. I then matted it with red card stock to make it stand out more.  I'm not a Patriots fan  but was very happy working on this and thrilled that they beat those stinkin' Jets on Sunday night...

ENJOY!!

Super easy Valentine Treat bags

Good Morning crafty friends (and also my non-crafty ones who are forced to follow me)  :)

I know I'm a little late posting this but you can modify these to any type of party or holiday.  Made these treat bags for my kids's class.  Can you guess what they're into?  For the Batman sign I used the "Batman Cartridge"  I cut it in yellow and used the shadow feature for the black.  I did the sentiment on the computer and then used a 1 1/2 inch punch and adhered it to the bag.  For the Karate guy, I used the Sports Mania cartridge.  (this is one of my fav. carts.  We are big sports fans here so I use it frequently)  I also used the shadow feature in black so that it looks like he has a black belt.  I made this cards since my son wanted to write his name in it.  The sentiment was also done on the computer.  Cut it out and adhered to the card.  I ran both the Batman sign and Mr. Karate through my Cuttlebug using the Sizzix Valentines folders.  Oh and I also filled up the bags with YUMMY YUMMY candy.

Enjoy!

Have a great day!
