Needing Ideas For A Baby Sitting Coupon For A Gift?
I’m going to Vancouver in December to see my boyfriend for Christmas. He shares an apartment with a friend / Co-woker, his wife, and their two children. They are expecting their third child.
To show them how much I appreciate them to let me stay there, I want to do something for them for Christmas. I’ve finally decided on a coupon, to let them pick a night to go out and we watch the kids.
I need ideas on what to put on the coupon / how to decorate it.

Here are some pics of coupon gifts:
But it was so darn cute! You get the idea I think anyway.

The above two are pretty much the same, I think, but one for a boy and one for a girl. You may get ideas off either one (as to how it could look) so I posted both. You may or may not have Adobe Reader, but perhaps you can draw it as in the pictures.

Kind of simple, but you may find it useful.
3. Here’s my advice:
You need:
- 1 nice greeting card envelope, (perhaps with gold leafing on the inside?)
- 1 poster card (or similar material) – for the coupon
- Set of paint pens/colored markers and/or colored pencils
- Nice baby print patterns to copy/follow

— LOL, the last one wasn’t necessary
- Draw the baby print mainly around the edges, especially only around the edges of the coupon (as the message will be in the middle.)
- If you’re having doubts about the letter, find a font style that you like from Wordpad or Microsoft word
- Just be creative!
- You could make the coupon as just a postcard, or as a letter – it’s up to you.
- I hope that the baby print is okay. Here’s some Christmas ideas (print-wise):
