Father's Day Candy Bow Ties

Saw this idea here, instead of regular size M&M's I used King-Size M&M's and hot glued a Hershey's candy nugget in the middle to hide the pipe cleaner - worked great!  We passed these out to the dad's in our ward, I'd say over 90% of the men wore them during our meetings on Sunday!  We used plain and peanut but everyone wanted peanut!  It was a hit and I hear might be a tradition for Father's Day now ;)

Here's a photo of Mark wearing it (proudly):

Next year we'll have to get a group photo - they turned out darling and was awesome to see most of the men wearing them!  Our RS president presented them right after Sacrament meeting and said 'our dad's really 'tie' sweetness into our families'.  

Happy Father's Day

I designed 4 Father's Day quotes with scrapbooking papers and elements and then matted them:

Then I added Jonathan's qualities with corresponding papers and framed it:

This is how it ended up looking:

I love how it turned out :oÞ Except I think I need to embellish where the blank spaces are . . . I wonder if I have time before I give it to him?

Father's Day Quotes

I designed these to use for a project for Jonathan. I'll post it on Saturday. Do you have a favorite? Mine is the one with the seahorse!

Father's Day Card

I used the GC talk Our Duty to God: The Mission of Parents and Leaders to the Rising Generation from Robert D. Hales, but I tried to keep it light in case those not LDS wondered what all the messages referred to and still wanted to use this card ;)

Happy Father's Day

I made these from the Nugget Purse template and to make 18 of them took 6 hours - LoL Who spends that kind of time on crafting??? =)
