Homecoming 2013




Isn't this cute?  It's "ask a date to homecoming" time.  And these days it is no simple request.  It seems that the boys have to do something special to ask a girl to homecoming.  This year MJ has a special girl in his life so we went shopping and he found a very nice and simple necklace to give her.  (Sorry I forgot to take a picture of the necklace...oops.)  He asked me if I could put a box together with "Homecoming?" on it.  This is what I came up with.  He wanted it to be very simple.  I found this small gift box at Michael's.  I cut "Homecoming?" at 3/4 inch on my Cricut on brown cardstock. I then used cream color cardstock to go behind it and cut it to look like a gift tag.  I also used brown ribbon (from Michael's) around the box.  I went around the lid taping the ribbon to the inside.  I did the same with the ribbon on the bottom of the box.  I wanted to incorporate his school colors onto the gift since he was asking her to his homecoming dance.  And by the way...she said yes.
