Christmas House Gift Cards

December 8, 2013 By A Spoonful of Sugar - 5 Comments

This Christmas we have made simple gift cards with a Scandinavian influence. Using quality white card, we attached a die cut house (from the Cricut Folk Art Festival Cartridge) and added a Christmas greeting using a Dymo embossing label maker. God Jul means Merry Christmas in Norwegian, Swedish, and Danish. We left the inside blank to add our own greeting.
We have nearly completed our Christmas shopping and will be making a start on our Christmas gift wrapping this week. We found the sweet Scandinavian style pegs at Lark.

Love this time of year ….

    Really lovely. I am besotted with a Scandinavian Xmas ATM but what I really want to know is where can I get some of those bottlebrush Christmas trees? I tried to order some from the US but they wanted $42 for postage on items that cost less than$10……shocking!

    Howdy would you mind letting me know which webhost youre using? Ive loaded your blog in 3 different internet browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot quicker then most. Can you suggest a good internet hosting provider at a reasonable price? Thanks, I appreciate it!
