Thursday Challenges - PDS15 and SISC2

Good day everyone!!!
Sorry I'm a bit late today with my post!
It's been a bit 'kookie' around here lately with sickness and sleepiness, lol!
There's no word to describe the oddness of it all,
so I just borrowed one of my sis' made up words, hee hee

I'm short on time,
so please bear with me while I combine 2 posts
and a bunch of challenges into one ;)
Keeps you from having to scroll down further, right?! hee hee

First, I have a Pixie Dust Challenge for you!

Mother's Day Card


Please meet another adorable image from

This week's challenge (SISC2) is to...
alter any item
that you can put something inside of it
 - .i.e. a jar, can, box, basket, etc...

I've had (and still have!) a hidden stash of chocolates on my crafty desk for the last 3 months now, hee hee!
I decided to dress up my tin a bit and really show my love of chocolate...
AND! also, make it girly enough to keep 'boys' away ;)


I adore her hair!!! and she really does love her chocolates!
I tried to get all chocolate-y with deep reds and brown colors...
I forgot to take a pic, but I promise you, this lil tin is never empty -

Stash & chocolate are not two words I could ever use in the same sentence! lol choc never lasts long enough for me to stash some away!
My hubby will actually buy a few Hershey candy bars, so when I whine to him that I need choc, he'll have it for me! lol We live wayyy out in the country and it saves him a trip to the store! haha too fun!
take care sweetie!
blessings, Maria
