 Kawaii Beaker Lollipop Covers

I used the new Kawaii Beaker Lollipop Covers! I used Jaded Blossom's NEW Science Candies for the sentiments and Jaded Blossom's Candy Charms and Banners.
The colored paper is glittery - but it is hard to see in the pictures. I also added a little Rumple Ribbon from LoveBug Creations.

Next up:
 
 
I love this nerdy card! I used a sentiment from the new Jaded Blossom Science Matters stamp set. It is stamped on the Flag Die 1 and the scalloped flag is the Flag Die 2.
I also put a clear piece of plastic behind the glasses to make it look like lenses! I also added a little bling to the glasses and a bow made from Rumple Ribbon to make the beaker a little girly!

#AJO Pay It Forward Reciepts

Good morning! I am excited to share with you my Jaded Blossom Design Team project for today and a special story that goes with it.
 
Alyssa surrounded by her family!
An 18-year old girl Penn State college student named Alyssa text her mom and asked if they could go get Pumpkin Spice Lattes from Starbucks in the morning..little did she know that Alyssa's life would be tragically cut short due to complications from epilepsy.
But through their grief and sadness, Alyssa's parents did go to Starbucks....and they bought 40 Pumpkin Spice Lattes and gave them to the customers with Alyssa's initials on them #ajo.
All they asked is that the customer pay it forward in memory of their daughter.
 
Alyssa's dad and mom with a PSL - #ajo

 
Little did they know that their one random act of kindness would start a rapid chain of events...soon #ajo was trending, coffees were purchased, restaurant bills were being paid, and small gestures of kindness were popping up EVERYWHERE - each one just asking to pay it forward in Alyssa's name.
 
So here is my project today:
 
I made cards using the Jaded Blossom Journal Die to give out as my husband and I #ajo (yes..it is a verb too!) random people :)
 


I used the Jaded Blossom Gift Card Die on the back of this one to surprise someone with.

 
 
I also used the Jaded Blossom Awareness Die on the front along with the Candy Charms & Banners and Alphabet Candies to put her initials on the front.
 
 
Alyssa was studying nursing so she could make a difference in people's lives. Please help continue to keep her memory alive, and raise awareness for epilepsy by doing a random act of kindness.
#ajo
 
If you would like to read more about Alyssa's story you can check out the Facebook page in her memory
 
Thank you for stopping by today....and because you did you might be #ajo'd!
Leave a comment and I will choose one random person to receive a Jaded Blossom $10 Gift Certificate! (for another chance to win comment on my Jaded Blossom blog post also!)
 
:)
 all I ask is that the winner pay it forward in Alyssa's memory
#ajo
 I'll post the winner tomorrow!
