Quick Gift Card Holder

Happy Monday!  My son was invited to a classmate's birthday party over the weekend.  He wanted to give the boy a gift card as his gift.  Since he plays football, I thought it would be nice to use the football textured paper to cut a pillow box and tie some football ribbon around it.  I used one of my $1 stamp sents for the sentiment.  We went to Modells to buy him a football designed gift card, but all they had was baseball.  I couldn't put a baseball gift card into a football themed gift card holder so we ended up with a Target gift card.  TFL

Super Bowl Sunday

For Super Bowl Sunday we went to a party at some friend's house. They always have a wonderful spread so I didn't want to bring a dish. Instead I saw this cute idea on the Cricut Forum for pillow boxes with lollipops. I couldn't resist. I used the Gypsy to hide the bunny on the pillow box from the Easter cartridge. It was soooooo easy! I used an embossing folder to make the paper look like leather and twine to keep with the rustic look. They were a huge hit!
