For today's Sketch Challenge, SC101. This came at the perfect time, my DD#1 has informed me that she only wants money for Christmas (and maybe a pair of flannel sleep pants), so I have made this for her. I'll put some cash in it, put it in an envelope and then probably wrap it in about 5 boxes just to aggravate (yes I'm BAD)!!! The foam is made with Tulip Puffy Paint and springled with copper EP to give it that touch of cinnamon and then puffed using my heat gun. The ribbon holds the gift card together and is fastened under the second panel, slipped through a notch and then tied off. When the card is open, the ribbon dangles from both ends of the top flap. Anyhoo, thanks for looking!
A great big THANKS to myprecious for my new watermark!!!!! Beth you rock!!!!!!

Sherry this is sooo wonderful! I may have to CASE a version for my daughter- she's still into presents, but I may use the card as a clue in a scavenger hunt for the last gift!

OMG! this is beautiful!
Love the colors and patterns, the copper emb. on the froth!!
One idea that my SIL did to my son for money in a pkg.
She got a huge box and put helium balloons in it, taped the money to the top of the balloons and when he opened the box the balloons all floated out of the box!! So funny!! Of course it is inside the house so the balloons won't float away.
Another idea was in a box was a note, the note said look in the freezer. She had frozen the money in a block of ice!! He had to melt it to get the money! Too funny!
It is so fun to aggrivate teens. You know they are smiling on the inside and trying hard as heck not to let you see it.
