Except that it reminds me of my friend (and her birthday gift).
Polka dots. She likes them. Happy. She is.
She's a fun-lovin', bubbly, chipper, spitfire, full of energy kinda gal.
She would probably try to dispell that - or at least blame her creamerized coffee. ;-) And yes, I know...she's a normal person and probably isn't happy 24-7...but she's got a great outlook on life and it shows.
It makes me happy just to be in her company. :)
She has a great sense of humor.
She's uber-talented, a creative genious!
Greets with a hug (I love hugs!), and has a beautiful smile that lights up the room.
She listens. Advises.
We enjoy chatting/commiserating over creamerized coffee. :)
Did I mention she loves chocolate like I do? Yay!
As if all this weren't enough, there's something more - she's got depth too.
Did you know she's my sistah?
Well, not flesh and blood...we are Sisters in the Lord! :)
Here's what I made for her Bday - Happy Birthday, Polka Dot Style (see - multi-functional title!) ;-)
Want to know a little more?
OK.
What IS that little box?? You know, the one that has a chocolate on top and says "All you need in life is a friend who has chocolate."
It's one of those items in my collection in the garage (much to hubby's dismay) for a someday I'll find a way to use this project. ;-) YAY - I've used one! Now I only have 20 billion more of them to use (jk)...it's a little gerber baby food container, and I can't wait to show hubby this pic. ;-)
And what does that card look like on the inside?
It's actually a gift card holder and card all in one! :)
Well, what do you think?
Thanks for stopping by, and have a GREAT day (and weekend)! :)

Love the polka dots gift card holder. Sounds like you have a great friend in your life. You sound like my husband; he likes to save things because he might have a use for them "one day".
ReplyDeleteI love the gift card holder. You can never have too many of them in my opinion. Your friend sounds like a keeper! Great use for the container. I have a ton around. Now maybe I can find a use for them. TFS
