Sippy Cup With A Little Something Extra...

Last week our church had a shower for our Youth Pastor who just adopted two precious blessings: Landyn and Londyn.  The twins are 18 months old and ADORABLE!!!!   Anyway, they needed mostly gift cards for things like diapers and wipes, but what fun is just giving a gift card?

So, I made these cute sippy cups with vinyl to "hide" the gift cards inside.

I used the cutest font that I found over at KevinandAmanda.com called Pea Faith Dots.

You can grab her fonts here:

I designed the layout in Sure Cuts A Lot (SCAL) and cut it with my Cricut Expression using Oracle 651 Outdoor Vinyl that I purchased at ExpressionVinyl.com
Once I had the vinyl on the cups, I added some basket filler inside the cups with the a gift card to Walmart in each one. 
I placed them inside clear bags that I purchase from Uline.com and tied the tops with curly ribbon.
I also added  little gift tags that I made using Provo Crafts Doodle Charms Cricut Cartridge.

All in all, a simple, cute baby gift!

Be Blessed,

So, we made a new memory this year with all the little ones in our family.
