OMG!!! I didn't realize just HOW big they really are!! WOW!!!

Last night I realized that I didn't make anything for the grandmas and was searching for the perfect gift.

I was going through my new albums thinking what a dork I was for not ordering TWO of the same type.

I decided to SPLIT up my lacing cards and use two for each gift. When opened and laced, they stand easily.

Here's my project:

Those are awesome. What kinda paper did you print on. I can't see my printer getting the blacks that black.

I swear by the Staples Photo Supreme Satin. I'm also using my NEW Kodak 5500 printer which prints AWESOME and cheap!!!

Those are so cute! I thought I read they were close to 5x7 and I thought it must have been a typo - guess not huh?

Yep, they are close to 5x7 which seems so much bigger than I expected.

Mine came in the mail yesterday. I was really surprised how big they are! That's a great idea Samara, to split them up into 2 gifts. I might have to do that too :)

Those are totally cute! I've had some lacing cards since they came out at CHA last year, I love them and have ideas for them, but haven't DONE them because I'm waiting to have my room decorated first. LOL. I think I should just DO them. Hahaha.
