Popcorn Tote / CTO #83



Tuesday again and time for more fun over at Celebrate The Occasion!

This week for our challenge  the theme is "Popping By!" (In honor of Popcorn Popping month, use popcorn on project). The DT has lots of fun inspiration to show you, so POP on by and check out the fabulous projects and leave a little love for the gals too.

For my project I made a gift tote. I saw one similar to this made by Lauren Meader. I used a template from Papertrey Inc. called Take Along Tote which you can purchase here. I cut it out in red cardstock and before I attached the pocket to the front I added strips of red and white paper, that I had rounded the tops of, so that it would look like a popcorn box. I attached a couple of tickets I had cut out with my Cameo and a punched star and circle with Movie Night spelled out in rub ons. After I attached the pocket I put a bag of Jolly Time Popcorn in with a little bit of paper shred for fun.



Inside I used a little bit of double sided tape to hold the DVD. and then tied the top of the tote with ribbon.



I think it's a really fun way to give a movie as a gift!!!



Supplies used: card stock - red, yellow, white; template - Take Along Tote by Papertrey Inc.; Star and Circle Punches - Stampin' Up; Silhouette Studio cut file; rub on alphabet - Doodlebug; ribbon and paper shred - my stash.
