Just Us Girls

Happy Saturday!  As I mentioned yesterday, I'm out of town for the night with my niece, Elizabeth.  Since we were road tripping together, I thought it would be fun to give her a little treat bag.  I emailed my sister-in-law to ask what Elizabeth's favorite snacks were for the ride.  So...I've packed Reese Cups, goldfish crackers, kettle chips and a couple healthy things too.  I wanted to package a couple of the items up nicely so I put together a little wrapper for the Reese Cups and a card to let her know how much I love her.  


This fit in perfectly for this week's Just Us Girls challenge.  The lovely Lisa challenged us to make a project using ribbon, buttons and flowers.  I used flower stamps instead of a flower embellishment.  Playing along with my usual CAS style! I sure hope you can play too!  


I'm also entering this in the PaperTrey Ink Blog Hop for an interactive project!  A little ribbon pull for the candy is about as interactive as I get :)!

Please stop by and check out the gorgeous creations from the other design team members!
