RED NOSE DAY - May 21, 2015 - HAVING FUN for a GREAT CAUSE! Charities for Children

Today is Red Nose Day! 

This event started in the UK over 25 years ago and this is the first year in the United States! The goal is to raise money to help lift children from poverty. The boys and I thought it was a great cause and be silly too!

This was the Walgreens flyer

We purchased our noses $1 a few weeks back for Walgreens. 1/2 the proceeds go toward charities for children. 

Tonight NBC 8/7

Seth Meyers, David Duchovny and Jane Krakowski will host the "Red Nose Day," NBC's star studded charity event! 

PLUS!!

Sheeran, Josh Groban, Christian Slater, Al Roker, Andy Cohen, Kellan Lutz and Kermit the Frog are joining the "fun-raising" special. Featuring great comedy, videos produced by Funny or Die, incredible music performances and almost 100 of Hollywood's favorite stars, the benefit event will help 12 charity organizations lift children and young people out of poverty in the U.S. and in some of the poorest communities in the world. Meyers, Duchovny and Krakowski will each host one hour of the three-hour live event happening at New York City's Hammerstein Ballroom.

Have fun. Raise Money. Change Lives.

EARTH DAY chocolate globes & FREE bag toppers - printable tags - Class Gift IDEA - Candy Party Favor

Happy Earth Day!!! 

I couldn't decide on a design for the bag toppers and had to edit and re-edit so here I am writing this really really late on Earth Day Eve on Earth Day because I didn't finish the post until now. 

Anyway, the boys love to recycle and wanted to hand something out to their class to remind people of the three R's. 

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. 

 I ordered these super cute chocolate globes and they look better in person.

We originally planned to put a few in each bag but then the boys said, "Why not one? We just have one Earth." SMART! ....ummmm....I mean, I planned that all along with the symbolism and stuff with just one. Only earth we have. Totally my idea...totally. :)

Finally decided on a tag. Once cut to size I folded in half.

3"x 4" bag 

Printed, cut down to size, and double sided tape to attach tags.

SO CUTE!

On the back I put From: and their name.

This is why I couldn't decide. I love the tree but after printing I thought it was too girly for my boys to hand out. They ended up giving these to the teachers and the other design to the class.

Here is the FREE downloadable tag. No date so it can be used every Earth Day and put it on anything.

4x6 size but graphic fits a 3"x4" bag shown above. You can print at home or send to a 1hr photo lab. Trim excess white from sides and bottom. Fold and attach. 

HAPPY EARTH DAY!
