Sprinkled with Love
Good morning! I’ve been trying to figure out how the days get away from me, but this time I can tell you precisely where they went. My last several days have been spent preparing for my trip out to California for CHA. While I’m very excited to get there, the whole “getting ready to go” process is not one of my favorite things. I’m sure you know the drill… laundry, packing, cleaning, more laundry. Our February sneak peeks will be starting while I’m still away so I’ve been working ahead on my projects and also prepping for the class I’ll be teaching while I’m there. Today is my last full day before I leave and it’s going to be packed with packing. Of course I’m one of those who waits until the last minute to pack and then I consistently over-pack because I just never know what I’ll feel like wearing ‘in the moment’! I’m also really good at procrastinating my packing so that’s why I’m here right now! I’ve been wanting to show you this little sprinkle project I made with stamps from A Little Love. I bought the sprinkle containers in the $1 spot at Target… all 5 jars for just $1. I thought it was a great deal so I might have cleaned out my local Target… I use a lot of sprinkles, you know! I have a few friends who also like to bake so I thought I’d decorate a set of the jars as a Valentine gift. I stamped the labels onto sticker paper and cut them out with the Favor Frame Die. Then I stamped additional images, punched them out, and adhered them to the top of the jars. It was super quick and easy! I’ve already used lots of the sprinkles on a batch of Valentine mini cupcakes so it’s a good thing I bought extras!
Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you all have a sweet day!
