Project Pinterest: Thank you cards



Time for another Pinterest craft...this time, it was a thank you card for Carter's teachers to thank them for all their help in potty training him!

It was super easy.

Supplies:
Card stock
Free printable, found here
Cup wrap from Starbucks
Twine
Starbucks gift card
Glue stick

Print out the free printable. Glue to cardstock. Open up the cup wrap and cut to fit. Glue it to the printable, making a pocket for the gift card. Slip the gift card in. Wrap with twine. Voila!

Project Pinterest: Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins



Hi, I'm Danielle, and I'm addicted to Pinterest. I remember rolling my eyes the first time I heard about Pinterest, but jumped on the bandwagon one day at the advice of my sister-in-law, and have never looked back. I LOVE to be crafty (when I have time), bake (when I have time), and decorate (when I have time). Sense a pattern there?

Anyway, I pin a lot. Like, a lot. But, I also DO a lot of Pinterest pins too! Mostly recipes, but lately I've been doing some crafts and gifts for the daycare teachers too.

Yesterday was a gorgeous [almost fall] day, and while the kids napped, I decided to make some pumpkin chocolate chip muffins instead of napping myself. Who have I become?!?! :)


It was SO easy and literally took my five minutes from supply gathering to placing them in the oven.

Ingredients
- 1 box yellow cake mix
- 1 small can of Libby's pumpkin
- 1/2-1 tsp pumpkin pie spice (optional), or a sprinkle of nutmeg, cinnamon, allspice, etc.
- mini chocolate chips (how ever many you want!!)

Mix the cake mix and pumpkin (do not add eggs, oil, or water) - just mix those two things. I tasted it and thought it needed more pumpkin flavor so I added 1/2 tsp. of pumpkin pie spice. I dumped in mini chocolate chips and filled my cute souffle cups about 2/3-3/4 of the way and popped them in the oven at 350 degrees for about 18-20 minutes.

They are SO good, super easy, and really moist. You'd never know it was that easy.

Enjoy!
