I thought it would be a good idea to have a simple set on hand if someone is going through a rough time and needs a little cheering up.
I have had times in the past where I heard some horrible news of a friend going through a rough time and ran straight to Hallmark for a perfect card and some little gifts. I thought it would be a good idea to have something ready to go. The inside of the card is blank so I can tailor a personal note later and fill up the little bag with whatever seems appropriate. This would work for any occasion from being sick all the way to a family tragedy. That way I can act quickly and bring some love and well wishes to someone who needs it.

For the bag I just folded a 2 inch flap at the top and creased it with a bone folder. Then I added the paper. I used my Crop-a-Dile to punch 2 large holes for the ribbon to tie through and keep the bag closed.
Have a fabulous day my crafty friends :)
