Cupcake Gift Card Holder

We had a birthday party to go to yesterday for my friend, Becky’s son, Aaron. His gift choices are getting a bit more pricey as he gets older and this year I decided we should give him a gift card so he can use it towards something he’s been saving up for. I also thought it would be fun to put that gift card in a cute container. Enter the Sweet Tooth Boxes Cricut cartridge and Echo Park paper from the Little Boy Collection (picked up at Hobby Lobby, with a coupon).

To me those polka dots almost look like big sprinkles. Yum! Fun cherry on top, too.

I decided to put in the insert for the cupcake, partially to let Becky see what it looked like and partially to give the base a little more stability.

Thought Aaron would also like a little sugar fix, too. *Ü*

Birthday card…used the Wild Card cartridge, Echo Park paper and a bit of Holiday Red cardstock (CTMH).

These were fun to make.

Hope you had a great weekend and are ready for a super week!

See you again sometime soon (I hope!)
