Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone!
I'm celebrating with this adorable mini gold banner I made and these really cute "Gold at the end of the Rainbow" cupcakes.  Both are super easy to put together too.

I think the mini banner turned out so cute and it's a darling idea for any celebration.  Find out how to create it in minutes -  details over on The TomKat Studio.

And how cute (and simple) are these cupcakes with gold foil-wrapped chocolate coins? So quick to assemble you could run out right now and pick up some cupcakes and gold chocolate coins and have them ready for when the kids get home from school today. I got my cupcakes from Cupcake Delights and picked up my gold coins at the CVS counter - right there with all of the other candy selections that beg for your attention as you are checking out! 

The green pearl candies from Sweetworks were just what I needed to add some adorable St. Patrick's Day lucky charm to the cupcake presentation. LOVE them!

This mini gold banner will go perfectly with the FREE Gold "Kiss Me" Banner I shared on SNAP! earlier this month.

And don't forget the FREE She is the Gold Art Print...
Hope all of these free printables are making you feel lucky today! *wink*

KEEPING IT REAL
I don't get much into the St. Patrick's Day holiday spirit aside from wearing making sure the girls know to wear a little green to school so they don't get pinched. I actually prefer to focus on the gold and cupcake rainbow aspect of it all. I actually experienced a little bit of "mom guilt" the other day when I realized Ella didn't know what a leprechaun was. *blushing*

It was Em's birthday yesterday…
I'll be posting the details of her cake soon.

Hi all!!
I'm sharing another FREE Valentine's Day printable today!
This time, instead of something for a classroom valentine exchange, I've got something to spoil the teacher or someone else you love!

I love how this gift card envelope has more dimension with the addition of the felt heart.
And of course I love the play on words between "heartfelt" and "felt heart". *wink*


I LOVE giving sweet treats to teachers…baked goods, candy, etc. You KNOW that's my thing.
But I know teachers are absolutely bombarded with it and their hips probably don't appreciate it much. *wink*
I think gift cards are the best - even if it's only $5 bucks! I know some people think gift cards are  impersonal but I think creating a DIY gift card envelope like this one helps bridge that gap…don't you?


You can get the fun download RIGHT HERE!
There is lots of other eye candy to get lost in over at Skip to My Lou so plan to visit awhile over there!

KEEPiNG iT REAL
Honestly…I think a cute cupcake WITH this gift card envelope using a gift card to my favorite cupcake shop will probably be what I end up doing for Ella's teacher. I can't help myself! *wink* This cupcake box might be just what I need to package it all together!
