Today was the first day of school, all 3 of my kids had a good day, they all had nice teachers and friends in class and only a little homework. I, on the other hand, had homework. Beginning of school year paperwork to fill out, my goodness, I mean they have been enrolled in this school 5 years now, why do I need to do this each year (times 3 kids) hello, computers!?!  But I got it done and if that is my biggest complaint today life is pretty good! So, last night when I made out the kids lunch slips and lunch money checks I noticed that I was running low on envelopes so I thought I would make some cute lunch money envelopes to send in:</p>

<p>I used pages from old books that were in bad shape and headed to the dumpster before I rescued them.  I used my new <a href="http://www.greensneakers.com/kick2">Kreate-a-lopes</a> to make the envies, stamped on them and done! Here is a video to show you how, it would have been shorter if not for my gabbing:)</p>

<p>I did want to mention how awesome the <a href="http://www.greensneakers.com/kick2">Kreate-a-lopes</a> were and how nice the inventor of the templates is. If you want to help him grow his business of envelope and other innovative crafting templates you can visit his<a href="http://www.greensneakers.com/kick2"> Kickstarter page here</a>. Here are a few envelopes I made in seconds with the Kreate-a-lopes I have:</p>

<p>Of course during my envelope binge today I misplaced my A2 templates&#8230;you know what that means, time to clean the craft room.  Unless I get distracted by something shiny which will probably be the case since I made like 20 glitter rainbow resin pendants today&#8230;oh wait, I bet it is stuck to something with resin! Fun fact, you can clean unfortunate resin spills with nail polish remover (don&#8217;t ask me why I know this&#8230;) Luckily these template are very durable LOL! Wow, another rambling tangent today, go figure.</p>
