And now for my projects!
I LOVE Gogo Yubari! She is NOT a nice girl to say the least..but she is a kick ass teen girl that works in Oreh Ishii's army of thugs,, the Crazy 88's.  She is Oren's personal body guard, but again, she is NOT nice, as she likes to kill for FUN!!  But I admit, her fight scene is one of my favorites in the movie!
I turrned Gogo into a Hershey Candy Holder!


Gogo is FREE for today only....the Hershey Holder is new in the store!
I added the Kill Bill blood splatter and slash to the cover, tied off with some twine from my stash. 
The Awesome stamped sentiment is a new set from Jaded Blossom Sassy Pants!!

But you know I couldnt stop there!
I also did Elle Driver!
We fist meet Elle dressed up as a nurse in the hospital, to do her "dirty work"
I placed Elle on the 3d Doctors Bag and filled with 'candy stripe" peppermint candy! lol
As those that know Kill Bill.... its always "accidents happen" with these assassins, so this sentiment from Jaded Blossom's Get Well Soon was perfect!  I stamped it on a mini tag die and attached with some twine from my stash!  I also used candy stamps from Sassy Candies, they just went so well with the theme!

GOGO and ELLE are free TODAY only if you follow the rules below!!!

Sassy Michelle's Birthday Blog Hop!

Hi Everyone! And Welcome to Michelle's 40th Birthday Blog Hop! If you know Michelle at all, you know what a smart ass she is, so of course we picked this theme for her 40th!!

Our blog hop is sponsored by Jaded Blossom and SVG Cutting Files! If your here from Jamie, then your in the right place. If not then click here to start at the beginning.
Jaded Blossom came out with TWO NEW Stamps Sets JUST for this blog hop!! And of course because its special for Michelle's Birthday we made the inserts in her favorite color, Purple!
SASSY PANTS $15.99

And we have a BUNDLE deal for you! Sassy Bundle is $25! 

 And now for my projects!
Well, its not meet the Griswolds, its "Meet the Criswell's" lol...
I decided to make Michelle and her family - hubby John and 2 super cute kids, Lily and Poppy!
Up first is Michelle
 
I cut the Michelle file and put her on the new Hexagon Tube holder. The tube holder fits the Jaded Blossom Tubes perfectly!  I had fun making this fun treat!  I added the awesome new Sassy Pants to a die and Sassy candies on kisses to my project. I also used a candy stamp from Spa Candies for the top of the tube.
Top View of the holder..with the Candy Charms & Banner Die, Flag Die and Mini tag Dies!
Next up is John.
Now I have personally never met John..but by the comments I have seen him make, yeah, he is a smart ass too (just like Michelle)..and well...he loves to work out, so he is a Bad Ass too!
For John I cut the John C file, attached to the Fancy Topper Die. I filled a a 3 X 8 bag with some Reese's Peanut butter cups and added the Sassy Pants sentiment to the top.  I also added a sentiment from Diets Suck to let him know he should have a Cheat day!  I attached that to the Mini Tags die.
Now we are on to Lily, the oldest Criswell cutie!
Lily plays the guitar and well.. I made a cute little hang tag for her.
Lily is cut from the Lily C file, attached to the Treat Tag Die.  I stamped the sentiment for Sassy Pants to the Flag Die.  I filled a 1 X 8 bag with some blue sixlet candies for Lily.
Finally we come to the last Criswell family member... Poppy.
I don't know why, but I just envision Poppy as a Blah Blah Blah saying kid!
I cut the cutie Poppy C file and put her on a note pad I found at the store. I simply took the measurements of the note pad to make a cover for it. All she needs to do is untie the ribbon and a doodle pad/journal awaits her!
I hope you enjoyed my projects today.

Apple Treat Cup for Staff Appreciation Week

Hi everyone....sorry I am late posting..the end of the school year really just slams me all at once and I never know if I am coming or going!

For my son's teacher and the paraprofessionals that aid in his classroom, I made these Apple Treat Cup Cards.  I love it as it doubles as a card, a treat and a gift (Gift card inside!)


No, no file..just a quick creation I whipped up for school!

May the 4th be with You!
Welcome to the annual Star Wars Blog Hop Party!
Our blog hop is sponsored by Jaded Blossom and SVG Cutting Files!  If you are an avid Star Wars fan, you will be thrilled with the Galactic projects the team has created!

Now if you came here from Jamie, then you are in the right place, if not - you DON'T want to miss a single project, so start at the beginning with Candace.

And now for my project!
I have a house full of Star Wars Fans, however we also REALLY enjoyed the parody that Family Guy did of the movie..
and so I choose Peter and Lois Griffin in that Famous I LOVE YOU scene.
 (Die hard fans know that Peter's response was NOT the same as Hans! ha ha
Yep its Lois as Lei and Peter as Han!  How cool did they come out. I love it!
If you are a Star Wars fan and have NOT seen the Family Guy version, you are missing out!

I put the Lois and Peter cut file on a Fry box I altered a bit to make them fit.
I used Jaded Blossom goodies as well.
Materials Used:
Peter and Lois, FREE today ONLY (keep following the hop to find how to claim them!)

This Month, Jaded Blossom has KNIGHT BITES on sale for their monthly spotlight, and the sentiment was PERFECT for my little dragon!

Catch A Wave Blog Hop - Surfer Corey Photo Frame

Hi there! Welcome to the Catch a Wave Blog hop! 
Welcome to our April release!  We are so over WINTER and wanted to bring some warm sunshine and activities your way!  So sit back, relax and enjoy the inspiring creations the teams have made using the latest Digi My World Digital Stamps!

We are releasing 4 new digital stamps and  5 colored clipart for this hop!
For my project I used SURFER BOY COREY!




I decided I wanted to do something a little different, so I made this Photo Frame Standing Card of my son Colin!
I colored the Surfer Boy Corey (yes I should have made him a brunette, but I wasn't thinking at the time I was making a frame!)... I just love this little image of him with his backside showing, like he is looking out to the ocean!
I cut the Frame Standing Card base and the Palm Tree from SVG Cutting Files. 
I hand cut the brown 'sand' for the bottom and added some Doodlebug Sprinkles for the Coconuts in the tree.
I stamped the sentiment from HAPPY SUMMER.

This really is a SELF Standing Card Frame...I just LOVE it.. the possibilities are endless with it!

Next on the HOP is  Gigi  with another fun project to show you!
