A Gifted Greeting Card

Our big holiday dinner is pushed up a week since we are flying out on the 24th for a vacation so I am busy making pastry, carrot cakes, and wondering where I lost a week. Does everyone feel like that? I am hoping to fit in a few moments to make this gifted card..............it just strikes me as absolutely perfect. It is a stylish way to use up small bits of wrapping paper. 

Red Satin Ribbon and Gold Stripes

If you have beautiful red ribbon........you can gift wrap anything beautifully. Red ribbon is the classic of them all anytime of year, but it is during the holidays that it shows it's festive and vibrant power. The wider the better, be lavish with it and make great big bows. Red satin ribbon here and here, and plain white gift boxes here. 

I especially like red ribbon with this gilded stripe gift wrap paper for a classic and elegant Kate Spadish presentation. 

Isn't gift wrapping fun?
