Gift Enclosure Card

I'm giving my niece and nephew gift cards for Christmas. However, I think the gift card should at least have some interesting enclosure (in case they don't get a choice in how to spend it--like if they need new jackets or something). What would be some good ideas? They are 11 and 4.

When I was five-ish, my grandmother sent me a little tote bag with a bunch of pockets; there was a fiver in one of the pockets, and I thought it incredibly cool. The whole thing, I mean; not just the $5.

So: I'd stuff it in the pocket of something. Just an otherwise plain pocket t-shirt would do; there'd be a "Oh -- auntie sent me a _t-shirt_... Big de -- OH! LOOK!" The four-year-old might prefer it tucked into a little box of some sort of toy; there're some little Lego sets that don't cost much. Best to have something to look at/do on Xmas, I say.

For the 11-yr-old: slip it in a deck of playing cards? You'd have to arrange with somebody to coax a game with said cards pretty quickly, but.

At either age, I would've liked it as a bookmark in a book I wanted, too.

My bro is getting married in June - this is the 2nd marriage for both bro and his fiance. I will be hosting a bridal shower in May. They have requested I include an enclosure card with the invitations requesting gift cards from a local home improvement store as they are renovating an older home on a pay as you go basis. They don’t need anything else for housekeeping. Any suggestions for tactful ways to “word” their special request.

Every summer I have a couple weddings to attend. I generally spend $25 on a gift and $1 on a gift enclosure (small card.) Wedding cards are $5 each now, since they have stupid birds and beads glued to them.

I am shocked to hear how much others spend on wedding gifts. Am I cheap?
The whole idea of "paying for your seat" at the wedding is tacky and horrible. You people are way off with that!!

no. you are there to witness a union. Anything you give is up to you. $25 may not be much to some people but it may be all the the disposable income for another. Let your budget be the guide of what you spend, not other people's opinion.

We are doing a set of Gift Certificates for my mom for her birthday. It will include a gift card to her favorite place to clothes shop. one for a haircut. and one for her pictures taken.

Any ideas on how to word the enclosure to explain what the items are for. Other than just being direct. I would like to be fun with it or something.

How bout
