The theme this week has been set by  our lovely team mate Naomi
A gift to Remember

Here i have made this smoothie carton into a chocolate treat gift.
using all images from our sponsor this week Stamp fairy,
 printed the dottie card from Bearly Mine digi  called simple dots. I am really pleased how these have turned out!  

The gift tag is a stamp fairy image too, used the same printed card for the Birthday card and used a MS punch for the boarder, added glitter to the cupcake and a gem.
