I’m so excited to be a sponsor this month at The Daily Digi.  It’s an awesome site…not just for the digi goodies, but the articles, the team, and the amazing work that gets showcased!  Every month they compile an awesome grab bag filled with digital kits and projects from 8 to 10 designers.  You get digi goodies from all of the designers for just $5!  It’s a great way to try out some new designers and to add to your digital stash.

I really love the project I completed for this month’s files.  I can’t really tell you what it is…it will be revealed next week, I think.  But I love the colors and the concept.  And it’s useful…a plus in my book.  I can show you the preview of the sneak peek, though…

I also took her some pretzels.  Candy coated pretzels are just about the easiest things to make, are inexpensive, and de-lish.  Plus, they are completely customizable…we dip orange for Halloween, red for the holidays, purple for birthday, you get the idea.  And, with any gift, presentation is the key!  I knew a cute little container and some packaging would make those pretzels taste even better!

First…the pretzels.  I buy those candy chips in the baking aisle at the craft store.  You melt them in the microwave and dip your pretzels in them.  I use the mini-twist pretzels.  While they are still wet, I sprinkle decorator sugar (we call them sprinkles at our house) all over those puppies.  Sweet, salty, sugary, crunchy…what more could you ask for?

I have been saving some containers that I knew would be good gift packaging.  I have kept a bunch of strawberry containers.  I have also started saving Lunchable containers…the new ones that are like a strawberry basket but without a top.  They are perfect!  I just bagged some pretzels and put this cute little band of paper all the way around.  I punch a scalloped circle with my new 3 inch scallop punch (which I heart) and printed a little circle with this cute baby graphic on it!  Really not that complicated.  I believe they were thoroughly enjoyed!
