We all Scream for Ice Cream Gift Cards!




I was working on some homemade magnets for the kid's teachers. Epic Fail. Plan B=Gift Cards.  I searched pinterest for cute holders and saw these:Pig_lwk_cho_1_large

Cute and they looked pretty easy.
I busted out some chocolate and vanilla colored card stock.  (I made mine 7 inches wide, so when folded it would fit in a regular envelope).  Then I cut a 3 1/2 piece of brown and cut waves in the bottom to look like melted chocolate. I used my corner rounder, to round all the corners. Then I used photo corners to attach the gift card and glued a Popsicle stick on the back.



For the record, I think the original out of felt are way cuter, but overall I'm thrilled with how they turned out. Although now I really want a Costco ice cream bar.  Hopefully the teachers will appreciate that I didn't give them a coffee mug or lotion.

    I was married at 32 and immediately tried to get pregnant. When I was unable to conceive I had blood tests for fertility and was told that I had an FSH (follicle stimulating hormone) of 54 and would not be able to have children. Even though the doctors knew that I had been diagnosed with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis since age 25, no one bothered to check my thyroid levels. my TSH was measured at .001. My Synthroid dosage was lowered. a friend advise me to contact a spiritualist who help with fertility with his medicine, i collected his contact and explain my situation to him he prepared for me a herbal medicine which i took as describe by him. became pregnant very quickly, I had a successful pregnancy. I have my baby august 2017. to get pregnant at age 35 with my 2nd child in september 2019, thank you sir , this is his email contact if you require his help babaka.wolf@gmail.com or Facebook at priest.babaka
