I folded it in 1/2 from the left to right. Then folded it down the top to bottom. If you hold it in the gift tag position and try to open it, then things are upside down. But from the gift tag position, turn the card & you'll see the picture, then open it and you'll see the wording correctly. I'd be tempted to draw an arrow pointing to the right, so people know to turn it over first, then open.

That is the public link from the PC.com website
I wish I could figure a way to get rid of the text on there that says
Make your own Batter Bowl gifts!
You'll find recipes and instructions at pamperedchef.com/holidayrecipes.
I wouldn't want it on a gift I'm giving! It will be OK for my booth to push sales, but if it's an actual gift, why would I want that on there?

On your PWS though, there's a Holiday 2011 link for customers and it has the info there that's worded appropriately.ETA: Oops! Sorry, I misunderstood what you meant. I didn't notice the wording on the gift tag for the BB gifts and how it said that. You're right...that's kind of silly to put on there.ShellBeach said:

LOL, yes I meant if I was a PC customer who bought a bunch of batter bowls and made gifts from them, I would rather not have that ad for the website on the gift tag. Just to give the illusion I spent a little more time on it, I guess? haha.
And don't get me started on all 4 different batter bowl recipes getting printed out...if I was really doing these as gifts I would probably choose one recipe (like celebration cookies) and want to print out 4 of that same cookie recipe. They are not thinking like a customer on this. It would be better to have 4 separate PDFS, one for each recipe that prints 2 gift tags per page. The way it is set up, you need to print 4 pages and throw away half of them. Ink is really expensive.
OK enough complaining, I do like how HO has figured out a lot of gift-giving ideas for us!
