Jaded Blossom-You've Been Elfed!

Hey All!!

 I hope you all had a wonderful holiday shared with your friends and families!!

 Today, I get to be the Guest Designer over at Jaded Blossom! 

 I was SUPER EXCITED when they asked me to do today!!

 So, for my project today, I wanted to share what Little Bran and I did to our friends for Christmas...We went out and Elfed people!

 Here is what it looked like: 


I made a bunch of cookies with my friends, and I used the cookies I made and put them into little baggies from Close To My Heart! 

 For the SUPER CUTE topper, I used the Candy Caddy and just folded it so I could stick both baggies of cookies into it! 

 I also used Elf Workshop, Freshly Baked, Fall Dies and Mini Tag Dies to make my project!  

 I also used Fern Twine and Silver Embossing Powder from Close To My Heart!!

 I hope you enjoyed my project! Thank you so much Candace and Michelle for having me!
