Construction Theme Invitation Template

The Cub Scout Pack I work with is using "Cubstruction" as the Blue and Gold Banquet theme.  After searching Pinterest for an invitation I could use and not finding one that really worked for what I needed I set out to make my own.









I give full credit to How to Nest for Less for the base of my design.  Using Publisher, I took this basic design and cut and pasted until I had 4 small invitations that could be printed on one sheet cutting the cost of printing considerably.   Once I had the design, I used a text box to put in the invitation information. So easy!

Have a great party!

Silicone Baking Sheet Liners

Last fall I purchased these silicone baking sheet liners.  I absolutely LOVE them!!  I'd seen them for several years and kept thinking I should try them.  I'm so glad I finally did.

After using them I struggled to know how to store them so they weren't in the way.  I tried several different ways including keeping them with the baking sheets, laying them flat a drawer and so on.  Nothing worked very well.  Finally, in one of my rare light bulb moments I thought why not roll them up.  With this in mind, I had to figure out how to keep them rolled.  Using my resources I found a toilet paper roll which has worked great!  You simply roll the sheet and put it inside the roll.  I've rolled the two larger size liners together and it works wonderfully.

If you have a chance to purchase these liners give them a try.  No more scrubbing pans, sticky residue from cooking spray and so many more pluses.  Definitely worth it.
