I've been writing thank you notes and wrapping pressies for the past 2 days. It seems that everyone I know has a birthday coming up / did something I have to thank them for. Well, a lot of them are men and as you know they don't like anything fussy or girly. So I used the color combo from The Play Date Cafe to create this:
OK, this is the girly version. The manly one was too boring to show! Believe it or not but I even made the hadbag paperclip! I cut the base from cardstock, rounded the bottom edges, added a punched out half circle, ball chain for the handle and a little flower.
And the inspiration:
And the rest:
On the bottom left is my "manly" version. Inside I have stapled a note and on the top edge of the note I've used a die from Di-Namics called "Notebook Edge". It's wonderful with a little tear off strip. Just perfect for a manly note! I couldn't resist making another girly gift card holder and this time I added a butterfly to the paperclip.
Sweet cards!!! Love the fun clips! Thanks for joining us at The Play Date Cafe!
