My Pop Rocks

I made this card and candy bucket for my dad for Father's Day. The wooden saying came from Michael's. When I saw the "My Pop Rocks" saying, I knew that I wanted to make something for him with the pop rocks candy in it. The bucket came from the Target $ spot and I just put a piece of styrofoam in the bottom to hold the sticks. I used some blue glitter paint to cover the main stick that the words were on, since that was the only stick you could see in the bucket.

Next, I wanted to make him a card that matched this. The Contributor's Showcase Challenge at Cute and Some this week is to use a stamped image, ribbon and a charm on a card, so I thought this would be a good card to use that formula with. The guitar was made on the gypsy using the Indie Art Card. I used a lot of little brads on this one to add to it.

For the Cute and Some Challenge, I incorporated the elements as follows:
Ribbon: I used ribbon to make the strings on the guitar. I took one piece of thin black ribbon and cut it in half to make two strings.
Charm: I did not have a charm that I wanted to use on hand, so I cut the saying you rock from the stamping solutions cart and added some holes to it to make them become a charm.

Stamped Image: On the inside, I added a music note with a heart on the end. This was a stamping up mini stamp that I have.

Thanks for looking! I was really happy with how this turned out and think my dad will like it too!

Update: The Fantabulous Cricut Challenge for the week of June 13th is a masculine project for dad, so I am also entering this into their challenge. Be sure to stop by their website and check out all of the entries and enter your own project as well.
