For my Brother

Sorry I haven't been able to post much lately, but with preparing for Christmas there is always a ton to do and Ive been very busy. So far I have almost all of the gifts wrapped and have all of the food for Christmas Eve, which is at our house this year. I've been waiting for my sneak peak order from Stampin' Up to be delivered, I wanted to order earlier but didn't have the cash. Can you believe that when I tracked my order it said that UPS would be delivering it on Christmas Eve, some how I wonder if that's right, all I know is that I cant wait to play with my new stuff.

This card I made for my brother Jeff as a thank you for all of the help he has given to our family, the inside pulls out so you can read the sentiment. I'm going to enclose two gift certificates, one for Home Depot so he can buy himself something new and the other to his favorite restaurant so that he can take his wife out for a nice dinner. My brother Jeff is the best, he would do anything for anyone, he is always helping other people. Jeff helped us out this year with building my new craft room, which was a dumpy little whole in our basement and he turned it into a beautiful craft studio, I really appreciated all of his hard work.

Supplies: Lovely as a Tree, Wonderful Words, In My Thoughts, Weathered BG, Canvas BG, Tab punch, Corner rounder punch, Ticket corner punch, Brads, Ribbon, Sponging. Colors: Bravo Burgundy, Always Artichoke, Whisper White.

The pattern for this card is from a Splitcoast card sketch #101, this is a great card for giving a gift card in.
