Your cards are great and that tape looks fun, especially if I can change out the color with dyes and mists!

And if you didn't win-go buy some! This is my favorite stuff!
 
And speaking of things I love-I made these cute little pocket gift holders for my kids first day of school.
 
The base of these is made from a toilet paper tube -yup that's right! I wrapped patterned paper around a toilet paper tube, then squished the bottom together and stitched it on my sewing machine. A few embellishments and some cute ruler ribbon and I can hang them on their door knobs the first day of school.
 
I filled mine with chocolate coins so they'll be nice and sugared up for their teacher.

 
I'm a little obsessed with these right now. I've made several more versions-mostly Halloween -which I will share soon. I've never been so excited to change the toilet paper roll!

Thanks so much Michelle for your giveaway! I can't wait to get my tape and start misting and inking them! Your little pocket holders are adorable and I'm going to have to look more closely so I can make some. Wouldn't they be super cute for Halloween?! Off to email my address and thanks again!
