Just checking in to tell you Mari and I are still blog flip floppin’ over at my other site, The Hybrid Kid and Mari’s blog, It’s My Life.  For today, Day 7, I made a simple gift card holder made with a bracket shape…

Did I mention that I am officially a new Troop Leader?  My daughter is a first grader and first graders can be Girl Scouts…they are called Daisies.  Well, when one little girl REALLY want to do GS and a troop is already full and there are other girls who are waiting for a troop, too, and a new troop is started and somebody has to volunteer to lead… Really, I think this is going to be fun!  I have an education background and have taught everyone from 3 year olds to adults…I can handle thirteen six-year-olds, right?  My good friend is helping…the one I wrote about.

We had our first meeting the other night.  It went really well.  We have a great group of girls and Moms.  At the end of the meeting, we gave the girls little paper bags filled with goodies to remind them of our new friendships and why we were doing this whole GS thing.  I think they turned out really cute!  Cheesy?  Yes.  But do you think that mattered to those girls…no…not when they heard me say ‘lip gloss.’

And here is the insert…

Like I said…cheese factor medium to high, but it was cute, easy, and inexpensive.  The crafty trifecta!
