Right before Thanksgiving I stopped to get a drink at my local Starbucks, and while waiting, looked at this years Starbucks Christmas gift cards. Hmm, I think I have everything I need to create my own "gift card" as it were, and include a little surprise for the recipient as well.
This week was the perfect time to show you my card because Judy has a great challenge for us. Hold That Card TLC459! I used a little pre-cut lacy doily strip to the inside of the card and slipped in my "look alike" Starbucks gift card behind it. Now that's a delicious snowy gift for anyone on your list.
