Melissa - Congratulations on being this weeks Featured Stamper! I found this Christmas card way back when you first joined SCS.
Things I changed:
Made Gift Boxes instead of a card
DSP belly band instead of ribbon
Gift tag in lieu of sentiment
My Grandkids are all of the age where they prefer cash for Christmas so I try to find different ways to present it. (Last year it was a huge roll of "ones" taped together with washi and then put into succeedingly bigger nesting boxes - that took a good portion of the summer to accomplish!) This year I opted for larger bills and made belly bands to hold the bills together. Die cut the recollections $ and affixed to Blue metallic mirror board as a faux money clip.
I used my own technique to make the appropriate sized boxes but if you search Tutorials here at SCS and type Gift Box in the search bar it will bring up 20 different tutorials. I made belly bands as closures for my gift boxes and raised up a gift tag with mounting foam.
