A Craft and Chat replay of a Gift Box to hold a Gift card. Sometimes the best gift is a gift card, and although popping it in an envelope is nice, I think making it into a little gift is better. Of course this would work for cash too.

I’m sorry, I appreciate in Europe the Traditions of Christmas patterned paper is still out of stock, but it should be in at the beginning of December. Whilst mentioning stock levels, the Black Friday sale starts at 11pm UK time on Monday night, so you might have to stay up if you want to be sure of your bargains. I’m not a night owl these days, but with the discounts of 40% on trimmers and blends, and 25% off adhesive and 15% off card stock, you bet I’m staying up and absolutely stocking up!!!!!
We have a fun day planned tomorrow, a mystery tour followed by a whiskey & beer tasting and dinner. Both gifts for birthdays this year, we have combined them and are having a chilled day out! I’m going to be getting my big coat out though, its a bit chilly. I hope you have a wonderful weekend whatever you have planned. I’ll be back on Monday with another blog post, I’m finally catching up, Hurrah!
