A Friendship Gift - Die Cut Ribbon Cards

I’ve moved a couple times in the last few years, and it is very important to me to stay in touch with the friends I’ve made and had to leave behind.

Email and texting are great, but not as personal as a letter or card. You know, the old-fashioned stuff that in today’s busy world, shows how much you really care. And a handcrafted card, well that’s just the icing on the cake!

When we envisioned our new product, Die Cut Ribbons. I thought makers would use these beautiful, detailed ribbon on ornaments, gift bags and tags, as candle jar trims, and more.  I thought they would probably be nice on a card. but had no idea how nice!

Imagine how excited I was when these “friendship cards”, made by my dear friend Jean, arrived in the mail with a note saying: “So you can keep in touch with your best friends this Christmas.”  

Jean knows just how important friendship is to me, and how when I move, I leave a little part of my heart behind with my friends, so I was touched with her gesture.

I know you’ll find something special to make with these Die Cut Ribbons too.  Make a card, ornament of gift for someone YOU care about.

That’s part of the spirit of Christmas!

Wishing You Holiday Joy,

Gwen
