An easy Gift Card idea for Christmas with free project sheet

December 1, 2025

I shared this pretty card on last week’s video. It has an option for a gift card hidden inside.

Isn’t it pretty? I featured the Modern Christmas suite here with the specialty DSP and the Ornamental Christmas bundle seen here.

I just love the font on the greetings and the unique coordinating dies in this bundle.
My colors are classy in Black, White and Gold foil. You might notice two different embossing folders on the White layer. One is the Traditional Wreath 3D and the other is the Forever Plaid 3D.

There is a scored line on the front layer to create a pocket for a gift card inside. I used a punch to create a bit of interest on it.

What do you think of this color combination for Christmas? I worried some might not like it but everyone at my Clubs loved this card. The Modern Christmas designer paper seen here is gorgeous with it’s fun patterns.

I did heat emboss the greeting with Gold embossing powder and punched it out with the Labeled with Love punch. The bits of Gold foil all over this card really make it special!

I created a free project sheet for this card and also a video with tips & step by step directions. Click here to print or download it.

You can watch the video below to see how to assemble this card. There are also two more projects you’ll want to see!

CUTE Pillowbox ‘treat box’ you’ll love!

September 21, 2022
I made this cute box using the Pretty Pillow Box dies. Does it look like a pumpkin to you?

Save

It does use the Pretty Pillow box dies for the flat shape of the front of this box, but the box itself is made from a piece of card stock (see measurements below). I found this idea from fellow demonstrator Lynda Emerson. As usual I changed it up a bit from hers.

Products used:

Crumb Cake card stock, He’s the Man DSP, strips of Mossy Meadow for apple die trim & for the leaves die-cuts, Pretty Pillow Box dies seen here, Stylish Shapes (for the circle die-cut), Penned Flower & Apple Blossom dies, Stripes & Spatters EF, Linen Thread for the bow, Simply Scored Scoring tool

The inside of the box would hold quite a few treats; it's a good size!

Save

Measurements:
- Crumb Cake 5 ¼” X 7 ¼” scored at 2" on all 4 sides, plus two die-cut pillow box pieces
- He’s the Man DSP 2 ¼” X 4 ½”
Here is what the Pretty Pillow box dies look like:

Here are all of the projects I made. The other two cards feature the Hello Harvest bundle.

Use the stamp in a new way on this card! Hello Harvest projects

September 20, 2022
Here's a pretty card I shared on last week's FB live video; it features the Hello Harvest bundle.

Save

I cased the idea from my friend Dawn Olchefske; changing it up a bit. The main floral image is stamped twice (once upside down) and the greeting covers where they meet. You can see this image in the stamp set below.

It might look like there's an entire strip of designer paper under the main card layers. But it's just a few small pieces of the Rustic Harvest DSP at the top & bottom of the Vanilla card. Check out the Hello Harvest bundle here.

Save

I colored the floral image in with Blends markers in Daffodil, Fresh Freesia, Light Old Olive and Calypso Coral. I also added a bit of color to the pretty greeting banner.

Measurements are:
- Vanilla 5 ½” X 8 ½”, 3 ½” X 4 ½” & scrap for greeting
- Espresso 3 5/8” X 4 5/8”
- DSP is 1” X 2 ¼”
