A few people asked how I made my Gift Card and so I have put together a 'How To' on what I did. I'm pretty sure it was a you tube tutorial as I had only marked down the measurements etc. I used an A4 sheet of card measured it out to 11 inches by 4 1/4, and then scored the two opposite corners and folded it over. You then scored the centre which is the V shaped part and fold it over, really that is all there is too it. You can do the same again for your inserts, just make it a tad smaller and cut to size. Could be used for Birthdays or Weddings too. So easy, but if my instructions are not very clear, please feel free to e-mail me and I'll try to help further. I'd much rather be sitting with you and making it, tutorials are not my strong point. Here are a few pictures to guide you and that may help with the folds etc. Enjoy your Sunday. Its absolutely Glorious here. Hugs Rita xxxx
Probably if you were to make it 4 inches you could get 2 cards. Just a thought.

How you manage to conjour up such clever and varied projects is beyond me Rita when you are so busy running around after Andrew and the family too. I hope everything goes well with Andrew's op and that you both feel so much better in time for celebrating at Christmas. Thinking of you both, Jenny xxx
