I love the little treat container I made yesterday, but I realized that a lot of my stampers aren’t as thrilled about treat containers as I am.  Since so many people are watching their sugar and fat intake and a lot of my stampers don’t have children, they don’t really eat or hand out sweets.  So…Back to the drawing board.  I decided to create a card that kind of mimicked the container.  Meanwhile, the other people in this house are thrilled, because now there’s a bag of candy up for grabs.

This uses basically the same materials as the treat container, and it coordinates well enough that I can send the card and the container as a gift to someone special.

So here’s a random thought.  I was doing laundry the other day, and the static electricity was causing everything to stick together.  I kept thinking, “I know I put a dryer sheet in here; I wonder where it is…”  Finally, I saw it.  I had hung one of Mike’s shirts up to keep it from getting wrinkled and the sheet was stuck to the side of the shirt.  I’m thinking they’re not the best I could have bought.

Tomorrow I’ll have another workshop project.  I think it will be a really cute little bookmark card (another idea from Stampin’ Success).  My stampers may not be “into” treat containers, but most can always use a bookmark.  Even though several have e-readers, I think they still have enough “real” books around their houses!

Thanks for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day!
