...was this ever fun, Lynn and I can see so many applications for this pizza box! Thanks so much for finding another cool technique!

I even needed to give a small gift to someone who blesses me each week in a Monday carpool! She loves coffee, so I turned my pizza box into a coffee gift card holder! I used a piece of linen textured Bazzil and embossed the aroma of many cups of Kaffe (a clear set from Impression Obsession) directly onto my paper. I used TH di walnut stain which I embossed with clear powder. I couldn't resist paper piecing the cups with paper from Basic Grey Offbeat and Euphoria groups and SU's baja breeze. The sentiment is also by IO. I inked it with ChalkBox dark brown on Neenah smooth white. It is cuttled with my petite circle Nestabilities with a brown and baja breeze. Along the sides I stamped sentiments from the set...THANKS A LATTE and TAKE TIME TO SMELL THE COFFEE. I also used SEE-D's coffee set that has wonderful coffee words and to go cups. Inside I stamped the large to go cup directly onto the paper and again on white cs. I taped it down one side and will slip the gift card into the holder I made with the cup!

I am so thankful to have Monday's free...though I have commited myself to spending it NOT IN CREATING ON PAPER, but creating (READ CLEANING) my house! Thanks so much for looking and reading and I'm off to clean my bathrooms and pick up the gift card!
