Gift Card Holder

I've been taking lots of photos, but none of them have been of my stamping projects. Today I decided to get a project or two photographed for my club members who weren't able to make the meeting and this is one of those. This is a easy gift card holder:

1. Use a 4 1/4" by 7 3/4" piece of cardstock

2. Score at 2 1/2" from one end and 2 1/4" from the other (this will leave you a 3" center panel)

3. Punch the center of each flap with the slit punch from Stampin' Up!

4. Cut the tab part from the middle of the punch on the 2 1/4" flap

5. Measure 1/4" in from the edge on each side of the center panel

6. Use these marks to punch slits to hold the gift card.

7. Decorate as desired

This card was decorated by using a piece of Sticky Pages adhered to Tempting Turquoise card stock and punched with the Extra Large Fancy Flower punch (118073). Then I added the aqua glitter from the Fine Supernova glitter collection. The brad is one of the Circle brads (112571). The leaf and and circle were both punched from Old Olive.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! If you still didn't make a Valentine for your sweetie, here's one more idea...

I adapted this from an idea in one of Stampin' Up!'s publications. I used Sweet Shapes and All in a Row along with the Rough Edges Alphabet. The card stock colors are Confetti White, More Mustard, Chocolate Chip, Rose Red, Regal Rose, and Old Olive. I used Chocolate Chip, Rose Red, and Old Olive ink. Some colored brads, Hodgepodge Hardware and ribbon (retired) finish it off.

Have a sweet day!

Happy Stamping!
