Care Package Idea - Fun way to brighten someone's day! Decorated box flaps & pink theme - Great for long distance family or college kid

Who wouldn't want to receive a sweet care package!? I sent this to my cousin before her first day of school. She loved everything!

Fun way to make the box a little more festive.

Everything was purchased at Michael's craft store. Mini sequin backpack, fuzzy heart notebook, and fuzzy pens. I also added a giant eraser, rainbow unicorn braid hair tie, and mini alarm clock. All from Michael's as well.

Double sided scrapbook paper. I had a hard time deciding which side to use.

Measure box sides and cut paper to fit each box panel.

I used double sided tape to attach the scrapbook paper to the box.

Then add little inexpensive gifts and treats.

It turned out so cute!

Filled the extra room in the box with pink paper shreds.

GENDER REVEAL party PHOTOS & planning details - themed decorations, favors, treats & drinks - How to make tutorials - Baby Shower ideas

AND I can finally say.....It's a BOY!!!!!!!

I was the "keeper of the gender" for a reveal party. Whew! I survived the quizzing & guessing and kept it a secret until the party. Now I'm sharing free downloads and tutorials. I had the best time planning and creating.

I did it! I kept the secret for two loooong weeks. TIPS if you're a keeper.

1. Anytime someone asked about the gender I always answered, "You have a 50% chance of being right." Practice that phrase!

2. I recommend replacing the following words:

pink, blue - both colors

boy, girl - baby or sex of baby

I bought this cute Keeper of the Gender shirt on Etsy & nail polish from Ulta.

I found the balloon at Wal-Mart and after watching reveal party fails, I purchased another balloon at Micheal's just in case. I also hid the balloon in a spare room until the reveal. I only had it out for a few photos before the guests arrived.

I used the letters on the treat table. Details HERE

I made chocolate dipped oreos, my favorite go to treat.

Alternated blues and pinks from the ribbon.

I bought these Team Pink & Team Blue stickers on Amazon.

We had everyone wear the color they were guessing. Some wore both colors. For the photos with the TEAMS SIGNS we had everyone pick their guess. No more "we guess both" and had everyone pick either pink or blue. They couldn't have both colors.

I made candy tags to match the welcome & team signs. This is also my go to candy ideas. I made them for police appreciation week, LUAU, with office logos, team candy, thanksgiving treats, and so many more. I need to make the text darker and I'll upload a free download. Check back soon.

Don't laugh but I ran out of time. I was finishing up decorations & signs, making oreos, painting my nails, and packing up supplies. I knew I wouldn't have enough time to bake cupcakes BUT I wanted to have pink and blue icing.
