Birthday Miscellaneous

Here are some other birthday pics. They are not stamping projects, but go along with the train theme. Each little cake is a train car made with oreo wheels. I didn't like the way the engine came out so I am not posting it.

And these are cute little trains made from a kit. Each train was put together (all the wood pieces were glued) and then the trains were painted. It's so cute because the trains hook together. There are 7 total in the collection, so 2 more to go! Makes for happy little boys!

Birthday Thank You

Here's the thank you card (Effie.. I know you wanted to see it). I like it, but not as cute as the invitation. See below.

I just used a train border punch for the top and the little people are stamped with the "All in the Family" set and then colored in with a blender pen.

Valentine Treat Bags

My friend and I got together and we made valentine treat bags. We dipped valentine peeps in chocolate, put them in a baggie, and decorated tops for the bags. We tried to be creative and made them all a little different.

The punches used were the Full Heart, Scallop Circle, and Heart to Heart. The stamps were from several different sets: mostly from Love you Much and Simply Said. It was fun but exhausting!! I am attaching 2 pictures. I hope the kids like the treats!!
