Default 3 x 3 Thank yous?

I need some help- My co-workers are throwing me a baby shower next week. There will about 30- 40 (from our company and two others we share a building with) people who gave money towards a gift. Is it ok for me to make them all 3 x 3 thank yous? Or could I make a some kind of punch/ candy thank you? I will of course make normal cards for the organizers (with a little gift).

I want them all to know how much I appreciate this and would rather give them something hand made but really have a million things to do before this baby is born!

As long as you include a personalized message to each person, I don't see a problem with the 3x3's. The challenge will be writing something brief AND personal. Congrats on your soon-to-be little blessing!

I think 3x3 is ok! Are you able to hand them out? Because they have to be at least 4x5 to mail I think.

It does kinda depend on the gift they gave too though...if it all added up to just a few $ a person, then definitely little thank you notes are fine...but if each gave like $20, I would maybe go for A2 size.

If it's to save time...maybe checkout CAS in the gallery...there are tons of VERY easy incredibly beautiful samples that take very little time.

HTH & Congratulations!!

<---------- agrees!

3 x 3's are too small to be mailed.

the bigger the gift... the bigger the card.

the CAS gallery has a plethora of inspiration!

congrats!

You could do a 4-bar size, although that's pretty small. I know it CAN be mailed.

I definitely think that is appropriate since they all went in on the gift. I love 3 x 3 cards and would be happy to receive one as a thank you.

3X3 cards are just adorable-I don't think size should match a gift. A cute thank you will be appreciated no matter what the size as long as it has a personal message written inside.

I will be able to hand them out- everyone gave $5 or so. Most of my co-workers (27 of the 30 who work here) are men- so naturally I thought I should include some candy with the thank yous!

Thank you for all the advice.
