Fancy Christmas Gift Certificates

I’m not the kind of person who is great with thank you notes, or has first class penmanship but I’ve always felt that wrapping a present was worth doing right. I take my time. I focus. I really try to make them look nice.

Sometimes though, you give a gift that can’t be wrapped up. In fact I’m a big fan of giving ‘Experiential Gifts.’ Classes, services, promises for future things. However, those SUCK**

under the tree… for two reasons. ONE they aren’t physical so you can’t play with

them right away and TWO often times their usually no frills and no fun.

**I’m saying this all as a gift GIVER; I’ve never once opened a certificate and thought this way. But, as a giver of gifts, as I said earlier, presentation is important to me.
So this year I took a bunch of time to create these fancy certificates for a couple of gifts. I got a lot of milage out of them and asmy final gift of the season I thought I’d share them with you. Hope you can make use of them next season. Click on them to access the full 300 dpi versions for printing.

P.S. I sourced the wood cuttings and fancy borders from some stuff on Google Images so thanks inter-webs.
