Day 30 - One month and no Cupcakes

Whoo hoo! I have been at this project 365 a full month! One down, eleven to go.
For today's project I made birthday treats for my son's kindergarden class. His class has a no food policy due to lost of kids with allergies. So in leu of edible treats I put together a little pack for each kid with a pencil and some cute little erasers.
Trouble is, if i would have bought treat bags to put them in, they would look small and not very special. So what is a crafty mama to do? Make some out of tracing paper left over from college of course. ( yes, college was a long time ago, and I still have my left over tracing paper... I might be a craft supply hoarder, maybe).
All I did was fold a sheet of tracing paper (freezer paper would work too) and sew lines. I had the birthday boy write his name on each one. I'll let the pictures do the rest of the explaining

Day 3 Sewing paper

Today's prompt was to make something with paper. The catch? Do so without scissors, glue or drawing. Add that to my theme of sewing and what do you get? If you're me, you get decorations for hubby's and my joint birthday party this coming weekend.
I used a Fiskars paper cutter and cut circles then sewed them together.
