Rushing to get everything done...

With the exception of a few odds and ends, I have finished my Christmas shopping. Thanks goodness because I need to get in gear if I'm going to finish all of my holiday cards and crafts in time. I have several people I have purchased gift cards for, including my brother-in-law who celebrates his birthday this weekend. It is a simple card to make, just a 12x4 piece of card stock scored at the 4" marks and diagonally in the middle. I used Christmas themed paper to decorate and a Sizzix holy berry die and bingo...gift card holder. I need to sign the inside and may add one more piece of patterned paper to the inside to finish it off.

I love giving gift cards and the holders are such a nice touch.

Great gift card holder!
I wish I could say I was finished shopping, but I'm such a pracrastinator.

Lori- that gift card holder is terrific- and if I end up with any gift cards to give, you KNOW I will be stealing this idea!

As you can tell from the "if I end up", *my* Christmas shopping is far from over! And, I'm betting that you are in a similar situation to mine- do you also have progress reports due soon?

This is very pretty.

I think I'm done making cards, ha! Not sure if I have enough, but if not, then they'll just have to do with a bought one. Good for you!
