Oh, gift cards. They are super convenient and appreciated by all, but it can feel impersonal to just hand over a cardboard card holder with the dollar amount printed on the front, right?!

Here's my solution: by slipping a gift card into a cute mini notecard and presenting it in an actual envelope, it suddenly feels so much cuter (and more thoughtful!). There's space in the card for a tiny note and any standard gift card will slip right inside.

Add them to the kids' stockings or give to your mail carrier, hair stylist, teachers, neighbors, baristas.

You’ll find lots of cute styles of mini notecards at emilylexstudio.com.

Don’t forget TODAY is the last day to order in time for Christmas delivery!

Truth for today. And always.

"Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: rejoice." Philippians 4:4

When my kids were little, I always kept a notebook in my purse for them to doodle on. Sure, it was also for me to jot down reminders, lists, etc. but it was so handy for times when they needed a distraction! I pulled it out at the grocery store, church, while waiting at the doctor's office. I still have a few of those notebooks and it's a sweet surprise to find their darling doodles.

It was with this in mind that I designed these mini jotter notepads. Spiral binding on the top for easy flipping, nice thick paper that doesn't bleed through, and a petite size that slips perfectly in any bag. So cute!
