Birthday Basket

There is a rule that says if someone has a birthday close to Christmas, the last thing one should give is something "Christmassy." So how about "summery?" This was made for my friend Karel. I made the 12x12 box/basket (Thanks, Heidi for the pattern long ago on our blog) and put some matching cards inside and it was a hit! I used my Bigshot letters- I LOVE THOSE LETTERS! and a retired scrappin kit, some old in colors and Voila! This was so fun to do and I whipped it up during a football game. I even watched the game some since we were winning and I still finished it quickly. Now back to the Christmas things! OH - Happy 40th Birthday Sista Carolyn! Sera
