Popcorn Box Pouch

I love finding new uses for things.  
I made a pouch from the Card Carrier Die for our Inking Idaho on the Road event and I thought I could probably do it with the popcorn box.  It was pretty easy!







Cut the box with the Popcorn Box Die.


Remove these parts of the box


Cut the bottom flap at an angle on both sides for easy folding.


Fold in the sides and bottom and clamp it together with clothespins.

Love You!

I've been trying to come up with some simple, duplicatable but nice looking swaps for convention.  This is one I made that didn't make the cut.  
I decided I didn't want to poke out all those pieces from the leaves after I die cut 30 of them. *Ü*  Would you?

It makes such a great little gift.

And Just Like That...We Have a College Graduate!

We had such a great weekend in Berkeley, California celebrating our oldest sons graduation.  The past four years have just flown by!  Benjamin graduated with a degree in Linguistics from U. C. Berkeley.


He's accomplished SO much, but isn't quite done.  He will take a class this summer and two this fall and graduate again in December with a second degree in Spanish Linguistics. We could not be more proud of this young man!


Several family members were able to attend,  the boys pictured here with their Yaya.


We had many celebrations over the weekend and lots of meals.



He might have been a little excited with the updated version of his Mac Book Pro he received for high school graduation.


Nicholas has one year under his belt at University of Utah and will take a couple of classes this summer before coming home for a few weeks.  It was fun to see him be so happy for his brother.
