I did this class for AWDML and will post it here too Envelope mini treat bag 1.You will need an envelope size 4 1/8 x 9 1/2 inches. The seal the envelope 2. After that you want to cut the envelope in half 3. I used Dream Street paper to cover the front and back of one of the envelope then take a strip of color cardstock and adhere to one side of the paper like this here 4.Add your flowers and any other embellishments to the envelope bag. After that then stamp a sentiment on it. 5. Then you are done to add your goodies to your envelope. I made these for some of my friends that I won’t be seeing at Christmas

Its Sunday and only a fews days till Thanksgiving and that means crazy hours at the bakery. I work at a bakery inside a grocery store and let me tell you...I cant wait till 11/26. It was a nice weekend here at home. Kids played, hubby played with his band and I cleaned some of the basement. I organized the Christmas stuff so I can just bring it up the weekend after Thanksgiving. I am checking sites and seeing what will be on sale on Black Friday. For the last two years , my mom, my brothers and I go to Walmart and get our Christmas shopping done. The most part I do but I never have luck when it comes to my kids. I did scrap today for a challenge at Scrapbook Doodle . One of the designers ( Libby) challenged us to do a 6x12 or 12x6 layout but add something non scrapping. She told us to get a sleeve from Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts and use the sleeve in some way in your layout. I love corrigated stuff on layouts. It gives so much dimension to it. I used Creative Memories Jewel Heritage Po...

Then a new card sketch will be posted tomorrow at MSW Now its time to make dinner, do laundry and scrap ...have a great day!!!

I pondered about this last as I was making gifts for the teachers that the holidays get me stressed and I forget to enjoy it till its too late. I am pulled in many directions and by the time I get to what I want to do; I dont have the time. I know you have felt like this too especially in the holidays. Its the 2nd of week of November and 15 days till Thanksgiving ( only 47 days till Christmas). I work at a bakery and during these times I work a lot more and more stressful for me to get a lot of things I want done to get done. I always make a list and this time will be no different except more of a pace that will get things accomplished and not burn me out by Christmas.I will be working alot of hours in the bakery and with that and scrapbooking, being a mom and wife...there is a lot to do and it can be stressful. I am starting today to organize myself better and pace myself as I do it. I try to get everything done in one day and when I cant, I beat myself up about it. I have been doing ...
