A Graphic 45 Holiday Card, Gift, & More!

We have more glorious holiday ideas today on the blog! We are also loving seeing your holiday ideas over on Facebook. So much inspiration! Today, Pam Bray and Nico Scrap share fabulous gifts with us! Take a look at Pam's card and gift box set:

“Each year we give each of our family members a special ornament at Thanksgiving dinner. Each ornament has a small memory of what they experienced in that year; ie like two of our grandchildren became part of a swim team. This is a keepsake for each of them and allows them to have a fabulous time as they decorate their trees going through each of their special ornaments.” Pam

Check out How to A Graphic 45 St Nicholas Merry Christmas Card by Pam Bray on Snapguide.

Tip: Distressing paper is a quick way to give paper an easy vintage feel to go with the decorative look of the designer papers.

Tip: Small “blessing” boxes create a unique way to give those around you a small trinket, a special verse, a piece of jewelry or just about anything to let them know they are a “blessing” in you life.

Love it all!

Congratulations Sandy! Enjoy your lovely prize!!
LOVE these ideas! I make an ornament for each family member every year and hang them on the tree! As they get ready to leave I wrap it so they can safely bring it home to hang on their tree next year! By doing this my grandchildren will have a minimum of 18 ornaments to hang on their tree when they are old enough to leave home. Every year is a different theme for each of them so they have a variety to choose from! TFS!
