I'm back again after my Christmas break! We had a wonderful Christmas at my daughter Hayley's home, we stayed for a few more days after Christmas too. The weather was a bit cold for the beach, but it was a lovely break for us both. I think my grand-daughter received enough new toys to stock a new store, but it was just priceless seeing her reactions to everything. I hope you all had an amazing Christmas too! We've been home for a few days now, but I've been busy shopping at the post Christmas sales, I usually stock up on Christmas papers, ribbons etc. for next year while they're on, I even bought a couple of gifts for next Christmas too......just hope I don't forget by the time next Christmas comes around.
Here's a few gift card holders that were quick and easy to make. I did find a tutorial on them, but ended up altering them to better suit me anyway. The papers are from Kaisercraft's 'Be Jolly' 6x6 card pad, the greetings are rub-on's by Imaginesce. No stamping on these babies! I totally forgot to take a photo of the card insides!
Edited to add: The link to the tutorial I found these on is HERE at Dawn's Stamping Studio. I did alter the dimensions slightly and used cord/twine for closing 2 of my gift card holders - I adhered the die-cuts to the top flap in those ones.

Thank you ~!!
These are so pretty. What die cutter do you use for the background shapes-scallopped edges? Where did you find the tutorial?
Have a wonderful time watching the fireworks! I hope you will give us a full report and maybe even some photos! I hope 2011 is a much kinder year for you as you certainly deserve one. Thoughts and prayers your way from the snow laden Jersey Shore. Janis R

Such a great idea to motel nearby for the fireworks; a lovely way to see in the new year together.
Re the pre-purchased Christmas gifts for next year; leave a note in your online calendar (Outlook?) for a couple months ahead, as to where to stacked them!
