Hump Day Package

Hump Day Package







I downloaded a bunch of camel pictues and I had all the family members take pictures with notes written on the bottom of photo. 
Here is a like to a  camel pics. view , viewview,








Then I ordered the pics from Costco I like to order the white border around the pictures.  This way she has copies of the family pics for her wall.






 I ordered a shirt with the camel for HUMMP DAAAY! I just typed in hump day camel shirts! My daughter loved that commercial.  


Then we went to Hallmark store and bought a recordable sound charm.  The family sand Bon Jovi "Living On a Prayer"  WE sand the verse "Oh we are half way there OH living on a prayer."  But we changed it to Oh you are half way there. Oh you are living on prayers. Then we said we loved her on recording.  You have to practice doing it fast because you only have a few seconds to record.  It took us a few takes. My daughter loved it. The charm was her favorite part because she could hear our voices. The charms are $8.00 at hallmark.  Then I put candy to fill box. If it ships it fits.

I first went to post office and got a if it fits it ships box.  Then I went to Joann's and got scrapbook paper in yellow, maroon, blue, green, silver, bronze and black. I cut one color for each house to fit the flap, then I cut the complimentary color in strips to go over the first piece to give allusion of stripes. We love Gryfinnidor and Slytherin the best so we made those the big flaps.  We used glue sticks to stick paper onto flaps.



I went to goggle images and found the house emblems.  I copied and printed then cut around the emblem.  I mounted them on left over paper. I used packaging tape to tape emblems on flaps.  Here is link hp-badge.jpg.





Next I copied Dumbledores quotes and cut them out and mounted them on leftover paper. I taped them on with packaging tape. Here is the dumbledore quotes link  harry-potterish.jpg









I got the stuff for inside packages.  I bought the chocolate frog and Harry Potter talking ornament from Hallmark store. I bought carmel apple pops for sugar quill lollipops, Sour gummy worms for jelly slugs, peppermint altoids for pepper imps, snitch truffles are the lindor carmel truffles, cockroach lusters are giradel garlic rye chips(Taylor's favorite) and Treacle tarts are dark chcolate covered Acai berries.  I made homemade pumpkin bread for pumpkin pasties . You can substitute other things for the treats.  I used brown lunch bag and glued the labels on and tied raffia around the top then cut off extra bag at top. Here is treat label link   Download Candy Labels Here.  And here is the second set of labels link  here.






I typed up a message saying Taylor has been sorted and placed in the house of Lousiville, Kentucky Mission.  I glued that on flap nest to gryffindor.  Then I typed I solemnly swear Taylor is up to much good!  Then Mission Managed!  Those are quotes from the books with personal changes.  I glued that on Slytherin Flap because of mischief. 



   Then I wrote a letter telling her how much I love her.  I said PS this is opposite of a howler.  I rolled it up and tied with raffia and wrote a tag that said howler for Sister Patterson.  




I wrote on outside of box miscellaneous qoutes from movie in sharpie.
