Mummy Yummies

It's been awhile since I've made an altered toilet paper tube project and thought this single Mummy stamp from Lizzie Anne Designs would be perfect!

This idea came to me while they were wrapping my hand after my IV treatments. I looked all over town for googlie eyes and couldn't find any, so decided to just make them from cardstock.
I used a medium flat cello bag and filled with orange slices. "Mummy Yummy" is stamped with retired Karen Foster snap stamps (I wish she would bring them back! I need another set!).

It's hard to see in the photo, but I drew over the lines on the image with a black Spica pen. My tag is all glittery and shiny and looks cool IRL (in real life).

I could have just hand cut the end for the tag, but wanted to share this tip with you. Trim your image to fit inside of SU!'s tag punch and you can do this to make a long tag:

These were so fun and easy to make that I think I will make some for the teachers.
