A Post at Last

Hi, all!

Sorry for the delay in this post... things got busy in my "day job"... whew, I'm exhausted!

Welcome to our newest followers, Oma and Melissa. Glad to meet you both!

I'll put up the tutorial for the Andes mint boxes as soon as I take some step-by-step photos. Ha ha, I got started and then realized no explanation could possibly be clear enough! Photo tutorial coming soon, I promise!

Happy May Day!

How about we start the month off with the first post of our finished Easter projects? These are little boxes that each hold two Andes mints (yummy!).

There's that cute lamb from the Pun Fun set again, and this time his little heart is flocked!

We wanted something quick and easy to decorate the candies themselves, as we were making a whole bunch of these. The Word Window punch provided just the right size canvas for our sentiments. Those are mini Prima flowers (non-SU) and they're secured by brads.

These little boxes really come in handy for all sorts of occasions -- who doesn't love to receive little Andes mints, after all??? :) They're quick and easy to make, too. Check back tomorrow for measurements so you can make some of your own!

The best part? Our friends loved them 'cause they made them feel special! That's why we make handcrafted gifts, isn't it? Because our loved ones deserve that extra touch!

See you tomorrow,
Pia and Kat
