Giving and Receiving

As lovely as it is to receive presents, I think I like giving them even more. I like to really think about the gift I am giving, and what that person will enjoy. The other thing that really matters is the wrapping – “Never give a gift that’s not beautifully wrapped.” So this week-end, I spent some time making some cards and gift tags to be attached to some pressies for my nieces and nephew.  I hauled out the Sizzix machine, cut some tag shapes out of the new Kaiser papers, and added lots of ribbon and bling (you can never have too much bling!).  I also tied a chipboard initial on next to the tags. But I think my favourite at the moment are the new Amy Butler cards  – all the hard stuff is done for you, they look so good already!
