I made this bag topper for today's challenge to use scraps...does it count? I used the extra white scraps that were lying all over my desk for the teeth and grey scraps for the braces.
Hip. Hip, Hooray! My daughter is getting her braces off on Tuesday after two years! She is so excited. I am really proud of her because she followed all her orthadontists rules. She has not had a piece of gum for two years and it is the thing she misses most so I put a bunch of different gums in the bag and made the cute little topper.
I'll have it waiting for her in the car after her appointment!

Great idea! I'm sure your daughter will LOVE it (at least the gum anyway)!

What a wonderful idea! Love the teeth and braces background. What a sweet mom you are! I'd reuse the topper in a scrapbook page with a braces on and off pictures.Too cute!

Awesome! It was almost 20 years ago that I got my braces off, and I still remember it! My mom took me and a friend to see each lunch at our favorite mexican restaurant, and see a movie, which was a big deal, cause we got to skip school and go into the city to do it! I'm sure they will just love it! Great job!!! It's just adorable!!
