Good for you going ahead and changing it, Nancy - if you are going to work on it you need to be happy with it.
Harmony, I have no doubt you can do it - do you have a Christmas party with all of them together? If not, arrange one, LOL! (And camera)
Kites - I never knew a kite image would make me smile so much to work with - it was a favorite quilt part for me. Something about it.
Folded gift cards - I take a piece of cardstock about 4x2 or 3 x 2 or custom for the sticker I want to use, and fold in half once. A hole-punch either through both layers or just the back at a top corner if I want it to hang. But if I am using ribbon around the gift straight or bias, the card can go along with the angle of that and just be affixed, or tucked up under a bow. For "to/from" stickers that are not very nice alone, they can be stuck onto cardstock, too, maybe a contrasting color, and they look cool. Yes, Christmas cards are perfect and when you receive some type of cardstock in a mailing in a solid color, save it - car companies tend to use a lot of glossy cardstock and leave a lot of it blank so their mailing looks sophisticated. Take another look at folders you are about to toss, or any other type of substantial paper. Twins Mom would be amused, but my gift-card making is a brief fling so I use cheapies. LOL.
