Eli's Birthday Gift

Hello everyone and thanks so much for stopping by today. I wanted to share a birthday gift I made for my and Terry's grand nephew. He will be 3 yrs. old and lovvvvves Dinosaur Train.

This is all the goodies I'm adding to his bag. I decorated a notebook, a candy bar, a can of Tootsie Rolls that is also a piggy bank when the candy is gone, a box of crayons, a plaque that can be hung on his wall or propped up with the easel I added to the back.

The above pic shows the closeup of the crayons. The front and then the back.

The above pic shows the 2½ inch pin I made using my Badge A Minit. I love that little machine and hardly ever use it.

The next picture shows the plaque I made. It measures 8 inches x 6 inches.

This is the before and after of the notebook I decorated for him. If you remember in a previous post I told how I do this. I simply take the front off, make a new one, laminate it and punch the holes and rewire it. Easy and fast and turns out so cute.

The next picture shows the Tootsie Roll can. I just made a cover for it. When the candy is gone he can use the can for a piggy bank.

The next picture is of a 4.4 oz. Hershey bar. That is the large candy bar.

I added an old jean pocket to the front of a gift bag and put the candy bar in that. Made a cute gift bag. I picked up the colors of the graphics for the tissue paper.

Well, that is what I've been up to Ÿ I will be sharing this little gift idea at the link parties listed to the right of my blog. Thanks so much for stopping by. Hugz, Diane
