Happy Thursday!
My 15-year-old niece, Samantha, asked me if I would help her make an exploding box for her boyfriend’s birthday. I was thrilled, said Yes!, and off we went to Michael’s. Samantha picked out the papers and embellishments herself.
As Steve plays softball, Samantha wanted it in that theme. Here is the top of the box:
I took a picture of the inside after she added the pictures. She used photos from T-ball, Little League, Middle School, and High School. Perhaps he’ll be a Yankee one day!
I wish I had taken a picture when she was done embellishing. She really has a good eye for detail.
My brother got Samantha a Cricuit for her birthday! The first thing she made with it was a Father’s Day card.
Thanks for stopping by and listening to me boast.
