Trail Mix for Dad -Everyday Cricut

I remember when I was about 5 or so and I was learning to tie my shoes, and who do you think I asked to teach me? My dad, of course, he was working out in the yard, which is where I usually found him when I needed him, he stopped what he was doing and knelt down to show me how to time my shoes, my eyes weld up with tears when I think about the patients he had with me. I was always a daddy's girl, I suppose I still am.

For my Friday inspiration at Everyday Cricut I'm sharing a wonderful treat box for "Dad".
The prefect cartridge for "Camp Out" because my day enjoys the outdoors. The other must have cartridge I'm using is "Tags, Bags, Boxes and More" a must have if you enjoy making gift boxes. For the word "DAD" I used the Zoobaloo cartridge.

For details about this project please visit Everyday Cricut -HERE.






Thank you to everyone for your warm welcome and your wonderful comments and as I've spent my week at Everyday Cricut, I have truly enjoyed every minute! Thank you again, it has been a blast!

Don't forget to leave a comment at Everyday Cricut for your chance to win one of the two cartridges... Give a Hoot and Nursery Rhymes. Good Luck to everyone!

    Robin - I just posted at Everyday Cricut but will post here as well. I really, really, REALLY like this project!! I love how you were able to use patterned paper by cutting the image twice and then trimming. I have never tried this - but will now!! Thank you for such clear, detailed instructions!!
    If you are able, please email and let me know where you got the woodgrain paper. I LOVE that.
    Thanks so much! I've enjoyed all your projects this week.

    This is so neat. My dad passed away 4 years ago but we spent many weeks and weekends camping with him and my mom. We had some really good time that I will always remember. I know he would have loved to receive this for fathers day. Thanks for sharing.
