Christmas Gift Card

Gift cards are the gift of choice today. Here is a gift card holder I made that is quick and easy. 

Stamps:

   A Christmas Punch

Paper:

   Dashing DSP 6 x 8

   Very Vanilla Scrap

Ink:

   Real Red

Technique:

   Double Pocket Gift Card Holder

Accessories:

   Basic Rhinestone Jewels

   Scallop Oval Punch

   Bone Folder

   Adhesive

   Ruler

Of course, I did not come up with this idea on my own. I followed the instructions by Jan Farring. I must admit, I cannot do a better job of explaining this than she can, so here is where you can find her instructions, photos, and exactly what I followed to make mine. Click on: Jan Farring's Double Pocket Gift Card Holder.

It's all a matter of scoring and folding the paper correctly. Be sure to use the bone folder for a crisp fold and adhere the seams.

HAPPY STAMPING!

Thank You Tassel

 I made three panels from a 1" leftover strip of designer series paper. Since the paper is a floral design, you can cut it anywhere, and it will look beautiful. I used Tranquil Tide as the dominant color, and Gray Granite as the card base. Any thoughts?

Stamps:

   Perfect Punches

Paper:

   Gray Granite A-2

   Whisper White 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside), 2-1/2 x 1-1/2

   Frosted Floral DSP 1 x 3-1/2 (3)

   Tranquil Tide 1-1/4 x 3-3/4 (3)

Ink:

   Soft Suede

Technique:

   Punching

Accessories:

   Scallop Oval Punch

   Mini Tassels Assortment

   White Brad

   Gold Thread

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

This is a great layout to use for those leftover pieces of designer series paper. You can choose any color from the DSP to mat it, and then choose another for the sentiment and embellishments. Have fun and let your creativity run wild. 

The sentiment is attached using dimensionals. The panels are adhered with liquid adhesive, and the gold thread is sitting on a glue dot.

I attached the tassel with a white brad. I pierced the card base first, and then placed the brad through the hole.

Feathered Thanks

 This feather image is beautiful. Here I have just stamped it using one color. I am thinking of coloring the stamp with markers and giving it a bit more color variation. I may have to google some pictures of feathers. Are feathers multicolored? 

Stamps:

   Tasteful Touches

   Perfect Punches

Paper:

   Cherry Cobbler A-2

   Whisper White 5-1/4 x 4 (2), Scraps

   Flowers for Every Season DSP 1-1/2 x 5

Ink:

   Soft Sea Foam

   Just Jade

   Cherry Cobbler

Technique:

   Punching

Accessories:

   Scallop Oval Punch

   Basic Rhinestone Jewels

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

I needed a thank you card, so I chose a stamp that would fit nicely as a focal image. 

I also decided to use a thank you stamp that had not been used in quite a while.

I stamped and punched out my sentiment using Cherry Cobbler and a scalloped oval punch. I attached it using dimensionals.

I then stamped the feather on the bottom half of the card. First, I stamped a feather on the left side, then one on the right side, and lastly, I added one in the middle.

I added a few rhinestones to finish the card.

Doily Birthday

Doilies are beautiful in design and may be presented at any time of the year for just about any occasion. Here is a die cut doily presented for a birthday.

Stamps:

   Wetlands

Paper:

   Kraft A-2

   Night of Navy 4-1/4 x 4-1/8

   Real Red 4-1/2" Sq.

   Whisper White Scrap

Ink:

   Night of Navy

Technique:

   Die Cutting

   Punching

Accessories:

   Large Paper Doily Die

   Red Rhinestone Brad

   Real Red Polka Dot Ribbon 5" (Trim it)

   Oval Punch

   Scallop Oval Punch

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

As you can see, the doily is large and takes up most of the card. Another idea would be to cut the doily in half and make two cards using one die cut.

Either way, you do want to create a tight sandwich to get a clean cut. 

The doily and ribbon were adhered using liquid glue, but I did use dimensionals to attach the sentiment. 

Sentiment and colors can be switched to suit your present needs.
