Sucker Birthday Gift

Recently attended my friend's 40th birthday BBQ.  She didn't want a full on birthday party and there was a "no gift" request.  I saw this idea on Pinterest, and decided to make it for her.  It could be put out on the table at the BBQ and the kids could have a sucker....perfect.

I bought a bag of Dum Dum suckers, stuck them in a cut piece of Styrofoam.  I made a box out of a single sheet of scrapbook paper using THIS tutorial.  Printed a little birthday note and taped it all together.  

Not for everyone, you have to have a bit of a sense of humor and not mind the work "sucks".  Some people do, which I understand.  Not my favorite word either, but I'm a sucker for a pun.....sorry about that.  See, they just come out, I can't help it.
