Here is my project using Gloria.  Coincidentally....yes!....it is the same gift box that you just saw at Kathy's post!  What is that saying about "great minds".....!

This fun gift box is a gift card holder for one of my kiddos teachers.   I put a Starbucks gift card in there and some Hershey's kisses.  The box tutorial was created by Brenda Quintana at Splitcoastampers.  Brenda has done a super tutorial and the box was very easy and quick to make. Love it! 


This was a very fun project to make!
