Way to GOAT


 I thought I would try a square version of the gift card holder to see if it worked. This card is 4x4 inches , 5x5 would have been a better choice for a square version. The 4x4 will still take a gift card if you apply the glue very close to the edge of the patterned paper. See instructions for Gift card holders a couple of posts below. The card below is  just a card ...no hidden features in this one.  The stamp set  is called Way to Goat and is a available from stampin' up.

 I didn't want to use ribbon on these cards. I wanted something a little more rustic looking.  So I thought I'd try some raffia.  It's  a lot cheaper than ribbon and possibly  more suitable for masculine cards. The fact you can split it  easily means you can vary the width  from 1/8th of an inch to one inch wide.  It can even made to look like twine if it's split to half an inch wide and twisted tightly.
