I made a few little "Back to School" gifts for my daughter and her friends who are heading to Kindergarten in a few weeks! I'm going to fill them with these cute mini hand santitizers from Bath & Body Works! I thought they would make a nice addition to their lunch boxes!
I started out with these little candy bags which I order in bulk from the local Candy Co.
I added scraps of school pattern paper to the bag fronts. I cut a cute little box of crayons from Simply Charmed and popped it up. Then I added each of the kids names to their bags!
Quick little cards for in the bags! I'm not sure who makes these stamps (or if they are even mine, they must be my moms) but they are cute and perfect for the kiddos 1st day of school!
I also thought it would be cute to turn them into little backpacks! I love how they turned out and I'm sure the kids are going to love their fun little "Back to School" gifts too!
So, what kind of fun "Back to School" projects do you have on your to do list? We would love to see them this week at the Whimsical Wednesday challenge blog! You have two weeks to link up your projects and remember that you still have a week to link up to the "Sense of Humor" scrapbook challenge! Thanks for stopping by!

So super cute, Amber! Love the backpack design and all the elements you chose. I give you an A+!!! LOL My older daughter and I loooovvveee those mini hand sanitizers. I did a mini hand sanitiizer favor holder for a party she had a while back. I used MTC and cut it with my Cricut. It's on my blog. I'm also in a Back to School Blog later this month.

Awww Amber- such a cute card!- and a girl can never have too much hand sanitizer!

Oh Amber... you know you always make me smile! These backpacks are so sweet! I love how colorful they are and the popped-up crayon box is just all things happy. Of course the hand sanitizer is such a wonderful idea... and you're right, those stamps are perfect! Such a sweet gesture to make little cards for them, too. Beautiful work once again, my crafty friend! :o)

These little bags are adorable. Love the way you decorated them, and then added the little handles. They encourage you to send little sanitizers with the kids so this is a great idea. Those card are perfect...love that stamp! Great inspiration for the back to school challenge!
These are just the cutest! I love how you decorated a plain bag to look like a backpack! Great idea!
