I was lucky enough to receive a box of Martha Steward goodies and I had so much fun crafting with them. I used that spider web punch to top off my goodie bags. I just folded over the bags and closed them by pinning the web on with a mini clothes pin. Super simple, but fun. Eleanor is afraid of the webs. She says, "oh no! spider!". I used the sticker borders to make little straw flags. I used that super fun and super addicting circle punch to create the wall hangings and ...

Fourth of July Mantle
After living with the Yo Gabba Gabba Mantle for almost a month it was time to up my game. I was lucky enough to be picked for an American Crafts glitter campaign and tons of glittery goodness arrived at my doorstep. This is what I did with that glittery goodness. The paper bunting was so simple to make. The glitter paper came in 12x12 sheets, like your typical scrapbook paper. I cut it in half (two 6x12 inch strips). I then cut each strip into three parts (each 4 inches). This left ...
