“Blue Without You” Care Package

August 24, 2015 by Tiffany

Welcome to Seeing Sunshine! I'm so glad you've stopped by! Make sure you never miss a post by subscribing via email. This post may contain affiliate links, so be sure to view my disclosure policy.

I had so much fun making a baseball-themed care package and a Fourth of July care package for Travis while he lives in South Korea. I’ve been looking forward to the next box I could send. I definitely miss Travis — like a lot. So this care package seemed perfect.

I really have been feeling blue without my hubby! When you open the box, it says “I’m so BLUE … without YOU!”

It’s really simple to decorate and fill this box. I used blue scrapbook paper to cover the box and white sticker letters for the phrase. I included two blue ribbon bows to add a little something extra and fun to the box.

Blue Care Package

Fill the box with anything blue! You can also fill it with other items, but wrap them in blue wrapping paper. It makes the box even more fun because they get to unwrap gifts inside the box. You can also include little notes with each gift on blue paper. Stick them to the gifts using blue washi tape.

I also used blue duck tape to decorate the outside of the box.

Here are some fun ideas for filling your blue box.
