Poppin' By To Say "Hi"

This is a card for my dear daughter, Kate, who's enjoying her new college life.  Happy she's happy, but I miss having her around.  I plan to send this to her with a box of her favorite microwave popcorn.  I made it using Design Studio.  I used George and Slumber Party for this.  I had to cut two pieces of the card that slides in the popcorn box and I glued a flat popsicle stick between these two layers.  I found that the popcorn was heavy and drooped a little without the reinforcement.  I think she's going to like this one.  My other kids have given the "thumbs up."  :)  Thanks for stopping by!

  2. Oh my goodness...too stinkin' cute! That popcorn looks like the real stuff! Your sentiment is just perfect and that little popcorn guy with that cute little face...love it! And how clever are you with the popsicle stick??? Your daughter is gonna love this. Happy to hear that she is doing well at school. I remember when my youngest son left for college...sure feels strange not having them at home doesn't it? I know she will love having the card around to remind her of home and Mom!
