Stampin’ Up! has outdone themselves helping us get ready for the upcoming holidays! I am amazed at all the card kits, banner kits and easy ideas for gifting. One of my favorite is the Kraft boxes in several sizes AND the easy peasy bows ~ no problem tying those! I created this box as a hostess gift to use if you are visiting friends or family during the Thanksgiving holidays.
