Christmas Thank You Cards with Anita

Anita here with a post holiday thank you card set.  I am always touched by the generosity of others during the holiday season and always like to take a moment to thank them for thinking of me.  Lori has some wonderful cut files to use for just this purpose.  I used one of her new Echo Park collections which is called A Perfect Winter.  I just love the patterns and colors and the embellishments are swoon worthy.  I used the following cut files to make these cards.  I am going to put the names of the files below each card as the names are very similar.

Neighbor Gift Idea with Brandie

Hi there! Brandie here with a quick and easy neighbor gift. I am using the Santa tote file you can find it here in Loris shop and here in the Silhouette store.

The only change I made was to resize him to fit a small package of store bought cookies. I also tucked a few of the Christmas coloring cards inside as well for my neighbors with little kids. You can find coloring cards here in Loris shop and here in the Silhouette store.

 

Tied up with a little tulle he’s ready to be delivered.

Thanks for stopping by!

Gift Card Booklet with Kathy

Hi Everyone!  It’s Kathy today with a little gift card booklet I made from a mini album file.  Every year, I give my college girl a few gift cards to her favorite places in a cute little package.  It’s one of her favorite Christmas gifts!  This year, I made a fun book using Lori’s 4×6 Horizontal Pocket Mini Album Tabbed Pages  (available here in the Silhouette Store) and some papers and embellishments from Echo Park’s A Perfect Christmas.  Take a peek….

To make the mini album a better size for gift cards, I had to resize the file.  To do this, I first loaded the file into my Silhouette.  Next, I ungrouped the file and deleted the tabbed pages since I was not using them.  I then regrouped the remaining pieces.  To size them I drew a rectangle on my mat measuring 3.5″ x 2.25″ which is slightly larger than a standard gift card.  I placed the rectangle over the base of one of the gift card pockets and clicked on the upper right corner of the grouped shapes and dragged down until the pocket size was close enough to the rectangle size.

This sized all of the pieces perfectly!  Here are some close-ups of some of the inside pages…

I added a belly band to the book to keep it closed since it was a little thick once the cards were inserted.  To do this I simply cut a 0.5″ strip of colored paper from a 12″ x 12″ paper and wrapped it around the book.  I trimmed the extra and secured the band with my tape runner.  Now to finish my shopping and fill it all up!  That’s it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!
