GOT MILK................................

Welcome to another week of MADE IT MYSELF MONDAYS...
be sure to click on the link above to see all the fun stuff people have made...okay like my title read GOT MILK......................

CARTON GIFTS that is...I am loving these new Milk Carton releases over at the Cutting Cafe. There are 5 new Milk carton files that have just been released:

CHRISTMAS MILK CARTONS.....I also used the CHRISTMAS MINI WORDS on this box
PLAIN MILK CARTON...(no cut out windows)...I simply couldn't resist putting GOT MILK...of course there isn't any milk in it...just some plain o almonds....which I love and the GOT MILK sentiment is from the GOT MILK SENTIMENT SET...
Don't ask me why I added the strawberries at the bottom..it just looked good on the swiss dot paper..

ASSORTED SHAPES MILK CARTONS...This one was perfect for a school gift since it has a apple cut out...I just filled the box with blue paper clips....and the greeting is from the ALL ABOUT SCHOOL SET.
Finally HALLOWEEN AND FALL SHAPE MILK CARTONS...I so love this paper by MME...I thought it went well with the spider cut out...then I just added some rhinestone orange eyes..I used the GOT MILK SENTIMENT SET again for the little tag.
I got one more project for you all....this little set was done using the new #1 ribbon shaped card set.....I thought it would be fun to give to my sons teacher...she can put the circle labels on the ribbons as needed...I used the 8 by 5 inch divider box to put them in...

DUBBLE BUBBLE CRAZY AND AN GUMBALL INVITE SET

Yes I have went DUBBLE BUBBLE AND GUMBALL CRAZY....I went to Michael's the other day and found a box of the original DUBBLE BUBBLE GUM...it contained the small square dubble bubble with comics in them.....FUN STUFF....so I just had to create a set over at The Cutting Cafe....

Here is a picture of the complete set: I used the DUBBLE BUBBLE GUM FUN SET

Not sure which I like best...the tube filed with gum or the box...

Up next is my version of the GUMBALL MACHINE SHAPED CARD in pink and lime...i have a neighbor who is doing a Gumball party for her sweet daughter...how fun is that...

close up of the box...I used the TINY WINDOW BOX SET

another little item to put the gumballs in...I love these plastic tubes
