Yesterday was my annual Customer Appreciation Party. I treated everyone that was able to make the event to a set of six card featuring the Painted Autumn Designer Series Paper and some fall stamp sets. I also made a little gift card holder for everyone, so I’m going to share the directions for that with you today.
I love how the gift card holder looks like a present…
…the top slides up to reveal the gift. You could easily attach a gift card to the recipients favorite store and swap out the paper to make it look like a birthday or Christmas present. The sentiment on mine says “I thank you for your part in m journey” which is the precise reason I host my customer appreciation party. The sentiment comes from the Paisleys & Posies stamp set and is stamped in Cajun Craze ink.
