Easter Treats





Shesh, really? Am I this bad at keeping up to date on my blog?! Um, yeah. I don't know any other way around it than to be honest. So again, I am sorry it's been so long. The last quarter of school really took up A LOT of my time as I am now looking for a job. Who knew the job search was really THAT bad? Apparently I didn't! Hello....earth to Heather?

Back to crafting. I have had a few more days to create things. And I will be putting up those post as well. But today it is all about Easter. I love making yummy holiday treats for my niece and nephews. Today was no different. As they get older I need to make my yummies for them age appropriate and just as special as they are. After cruising a few blogs last night I found some awesome ideas. It's from the most wonderful blog All the Small Things. This is one UBER creative lady. So head on over to her blog and see what sparks your creative brain.
I combined a couple of her ideas into one from her post "From Grocery Store Blah to Easter TA DA!" I made the tags using Punch Box Designer Label set from Stampin' Up! It was such a cheep gift idea too.

My roommate (check her out at Creative Entertaining) and I decided to make the yummy Krispy treats that you've been seeing on the T.V. We made half eggs so they laid well and I made full eggs covered with baking chips and decorated for my niece and nephews individually. It was a ton of fun and totally easy as pie....I mean treat?! Plus.....cheep, cheep, cheep;-)

The halfsies

Butterflies for my niece.

Stripes for my oldest nephew.

All-in-all it was a pretty calm Easter with good food, a fun family, lots of love and a great celebration for Jesus. I hope you all had a wonderful Easter.
