Christmas Season is a time for giving. I love sharing little gifts with friends. There are a few friends that are always there for me when I need them most. I made this little gift to give to my friends that always give extra no matter what. I want them to know that I am thinking of them and I am grateful for everything they have done.

I first grabbed some Mint Chocolate Chip Gum. This flavor is my favorite I love anything with mint and chocolate. Yumm! I really love their watermelon flavor too.

For this project I designed, printed, and then cut these tags out with my silhouette. I cut off the part with the hole since I wasn’t going to be hanging the tag on anything. Then I used scissors to scrap off some of the black to really make it look like a chalkboard. Then I taped the tag onto two packs of gum and tied it together with red and green bakers twine.

This was really simple and cute. I am giving one to my friend Kimberly. She was really there when I needed her this past year. She is so encouraging and helps me so much! I am also giving one to my friend Kristen. She may be far away, but she is one of my best friends. She always listens when I call and understands my struggles.
