FCCB 143 - TAG YOU'RE IT!

The challenge this week over at the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge blog 

is to create a project with a tag.

I decided to make a 'tag' gift card holder.

I must give a shout out to our UPS man at work (Kevin). He's alway very curtious and helpful. 

So this holiday season I made this gift card holder for him with a Tim Horton's gift card.

I used the Tags, Bags, Boxed and More cartridge along with the Love You a Latte Cricut Lite cartridge for the cup.

The sentiment is from a retired Stampin' Up set called So Many Sayings and added some Hemp twine also Stampin' Up!.

As shown below, the gift card is adhered with 2 glue dots.

Be sure to check out the great ideas the other talented ladies have to offer.

Holiday Treat Packaging (Video)

Hi All,

Today (Tuesday) over at

Robin's Creative Cottage,

the challenge is to create a project showing how to

wrap holiday treats, gift bags, boxes etc.

Using this sentiment from

I made and decorated this box.

This box is great for gift cards or small treats etc.

for the background.
