Tea Party

I am having a Tea Party for my Secret Sister group at church next Tuesday. this is the favor. It will have tea bags and a butter cookie shaped like a tea bag in the middle. They are so cute. These can be found on the net and are very easy to make.

Here is the card I made for the Tea Party. I was going to make it an invitation but decided to just give it to them so they can send a card to someone. I cased this card from here. Hope you like it as much as I do.

BLAKE'S BRACELETS

My very talented grandson Blake makes these survival bracelets. He sells them for $5 each so if you would like to buy one just send me an e-mail with colors and quantity. They call them "survival" bracelets because they are made with 8 feet of nylon cord or if you are in a bind and need a rope you can take this bracelet apart and use the cord. I think that is so cool. You can get them in school colors too!! I hope you will order one or more for you kids or grandkids or the campers or hikers in your life. Enjoy!!

SU Meeting Swap

Hello everyone. Man it has been a long time. I can't seem to keep up these days. Here is a couple of pictures of the SWAP I made for our SU downline meeting tomorrow. These little boxes were in the SU magazine this month. Enjoy!!



The card stock is Pear Pizzaz and measures 5 1/4 X 3. Score on the 5 1/4 side every 7/8". The ends are DSP cut with the Fancy Flower punch. I used the Modern label punch for the window and then covered it with a 2 1/2 X 3/4" piece of window sheet. Then I used the postage stamp punch in real red and the 1" punch in whisper white. I used the real red marker with the Outlined Occassions stamp set. I used some wax string that I have had for awhile that isn't SU. Sorry I couldn't find my hemp twine. I hope you will make some of these and let me know how it goes and send me a pic.
