Attitude of Gratitude Gift Bag {CTMH} Close To My Heart

Gratitude...
John F. Kennedy said, "As we exress our gratitude, we must never forget that the higest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them."

LIVE with an ATTITUDE of GRATITUDE

Thank your customers, your friends, your family, by sending a little a thank you.

Here is a cute bag/box for a friend, team member or for a hostess gift.
It holds standard size cards and envelopes!
This is the bag/box I shared at our meeting posted earlier. Start with a 12" x 12". Score at 1", 3", 9", 11"~turn score at 5" & 7". Cute the side where shown and fold up.
The top flap is a 4"x6" piece folded and punched for the ribbon.

I am LOVING this Origami Heart!

Cut a pile of squares...mine was a 6"x6" square, and fold on the go. Keep a pile of squares by you when you are waiting for something like an appointment, or when you are chatting on the phone, watching a movie...have them handy to add to a project and just say Thank You, you are Close To My Heart!

Learn how to fold the heart here:
