Now some blahblah about my quickie project:
The other day, my kids and I were at Cost Plus and found a pretty bag of caramel covered, chocolate drizzled popcorn that had these mysterious orange-ish and reddish candy-looking things mixed in with it. I thought, “Wow! This would be perfect for little treats for all the cousins who come over for Halloween!” So I bought the big bag and brought it home. I made a cute little bag for it by running the coffee bag through my Big Shot with one of the plain oval Nestabilities. I added a strip of patterned paper, another Nestability-cut oval frame, and this sweet little scarecrow (available today at Kraftin’ Kimmie!), then filled it with a cello bag that I’d stuffed with some of the popcorn. I was so excited – how cute, right? – added a big bow, and then decided to try the popcorn.
UGH. It was repulsive. Brought the kids in to try it, too. Verdict: Throw. The. Whole. Bag. Out.
Guess I’ll be working on some other kind of treat for the cousins! I think this cutie pie scarecrow will find his way onto tags! 🙂 Thanks for visiting today!
