I made Christmas Cards for Corwyn's teachers. They turned out really well, I think. We are giving them Candy Basket gift certificates since I know everyone's taste for sweets varies. Also, Candy Basket has lots of other goodies in case someone doesn't want sweets (though I can't comprehend this option).

In order to make the card big enough to hold the gift certificate, I couldn't put it in a normal envelope, and it is too big to make envelopes for even with 12x12 paper. SO, I compromised by using a paperclip to hold the gift certificate in and hold the card closed. I thought it made it look like an ornament, which is fun, too. On the back I put a pretty sticker and wrote the teacher's name.

I used the Cricut "Winter Wonderland" cartridge. The antlers are unevenly inked with copper ink.
