hi there! so i am sure i have told you but...i really like the twilight series. :) like, a lot. and i am super excited about the new moon movie which comes out on november 20th (see countdown below!!). my good friend and i have been planning to go to the midnight show for months, our husbands are watching the kids, our tickets are bought, we've both got twilight themed t-shirts to wear (yes, we are dorks!!) and we are ready to roll! her birthday was today and i thought it would be funny to make her a *new moon premiere survival kit*! her and i don't really know what to expect that night, but we are prepared for the crazy that we will definitely experience and i thought i'd make her a gift in honor of our fun night out!! i used a tin box that i had been saving and altered it inside and out with a muse's wood grain paper, then decorated it with all of a muse's new twilight themed stamps. so fun! i also added some glow in the dark glitter to the moon on the front. inside i added some kleenex that i also wrapped in a strip of wood grain paper (you know we are all going to need some serious kleenex in this movie!!), some advil (in case she gets a headache from all of the screaming girls), some new moon jacob and edward chocolate (to eat during the movie) and some twilight trading cards (to read while waiting in the ginormous line to get in). below is a picture of the inside and also some of the contents. i had a blast making this and she got a huge kick out of it, so it worked out great! :)
i also wanted to say thanks to everyone that left me a comment on the last cards i posted! it really means a lot to me that you take the time to comment, and you really made me feel special, so thank you! :) hope you are having a great week and thanks for visiting! :)
Super cute, Jennie! Love it!

Oh my vampires! This is flippin' awesome! What a super fun idea! I love everything you put into it! GOOD LUCK on Nov. 20th....I am also eagerly awaiting New Moon, but I just can't take the screaming girls. So I intend to wait a week and maybe see it in the afternoon when the screaming girls should be in school. LOL!
