As I keep mentioning, Caro and I are off to a crop. It’s tomorrow morning and we can check in at 8am which is just less than 12 hours away. By the time you read this – we’ll be there. We’re excited and almost ready – I just need to pack up all my stuff (!) and make some biscotti. My tags for the tag swap are in progress – thank goodness that the swap isn’t until Saturday!

However I have packaged all my stuff for my secret pal (and I haven’t told her about my blog so I can share this) and I’m really happy with a die cut that I found in Michaels. It’s made by Sizzix and is a milk carton box. For the most amusement I realise that I should’ve put cookies in it, but they aren’t air tight.

The paper on the left came from Hobby Lobby which at 60 pages for $19.99 was a pretty good deal. It’s made by the Paper Studio and it called Oh So Glam and all of the papers have gold foil on them. The paper on the right is retired Stampin’ Up! and a bit lighter weight and doesn’t really cope well with this kind of box – as in the edges ended up with holes in them. Of course if I’d got the heavier Under the Tree DSP I’d be fine, but that hasn’t made it to my house. Yet.
