Don't Be A Square

I was blog hoppin this morning and I came across the Anyone For Anya challenge this week. There request was "Don't Be A Square". Awesome challenge since I was itchin to try something new. I also needed to make a card for a male friend of mine. (Such hard cards to make for me) I took inspiration from their fabulous DT cards and here's what I came up with...
I wanted it to look like the present Ian is holding and then the inside...

It opens up to reveal the real present. It's a gift card holder. I was able to use some of my recyclables. I'm looking forward to all of your lovely comments. :), Vanessa

What I used:
SU Paper
Ribbon from Hobby Lobby (Dollar special and my son picked it out)
Greeting Farm Stamp Set
SU Whimsical Words Sentiment
Brad in the corner to open the card
Copics
