Christmas Shopping.......

How are you going with your Christmas Shopping? Its not long to go now! And the Shopping Centres are getting horribly busy!!

Have you considered making some presents and avoiding all the mayhem of the shops? Our forum is full of free classes and Step-by-steps to help you whip up some fabulous gifts in no time at all!

What about Gift Cards? They are very popular for giving to people and allowing them to pick their own gifts. But they dont need to be just stuck inside a card! What about making one of these quick and easy envelopes to present the Gift Card in!



All you need is a strip of Patterned paper that is 10cm x 30cm (so you can get 3 envelopes from a sheet of paper!). I used Basicgrey Figgy Pudding paper for mine.
Make a fold about 10cm from the end, and then fold the top over.





Use double sided tape on the sides to form the envelope. You could also sew the sides using a machine or staple them.



Use a brad to attach some ribbon, cut a slot on the flap to thread the ribbon through, make a tag, slide the gift card in, tie it up and you are done!!






Dont forget for your scrapping friends we have SCRAP THERAPY GIFT VOUCHERS! Available in $10, $20, $50 or $100 amounts. Drop some hints to your family and friends that its what you want for Christmas this year!
