Had a
successful yard sale today. I organize the yard sale for my homeowner's
association each Spring getting everyone permits & placing free ads
in online newspaper & Craig's List. Had rained a lot last night but
no rain today. Sold both my former Cricut machines (Cricut Expression 2
& one that preceded the Exp 2; I'm enjoying my new Cricut Explore
Air), cards, all my Stampin' Up stamps I had for sale along with SU
blocks in a case (do not need the blocks anymore now that I have the
MISTI tool), and much more.
Created this box using Cricut cartridge Fancy Boxes that I bought at a Michaels Grand Opening last Sun for 50% off.
Used Kraft cardstock for the box with light blue panels that I embossed with Cuttlebug Swiss Dots behind the flower cut out areas. Colored the leaf areas with a marker.
Stamped Hero Arts sentiment. Added gift of some candy inside for a friend. Added twine.
