I've been having my customers make these cards for a month now. I have 32 completed. They will be donated to RMHC. I hope to donate a total of 250 by next June.

Whoa! You guys are great! I love that you are all on the bandwagon for making these. Here is a tip for the ribbon and on the double hole punch:
With the card in portrait position. Put your punch (upside down)at the bottom of the card. Position it up as far as it can go and center it. Punch once, then back it down a little ways and punch again, creating a total of 4 holes. Take the ends of your ribbon and put each end into the far left 2 holes, leaving a loop (so the crayons fit through them). Then from inside the card, cross each end over and come back up though the other two holes. Put your crayons through the loop and tighten, then tie the bow. I hope this makes sense. HAVE FUN!!!
