An easy Gift Card idea for Christmas with free project sheet

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!

• Rings of Love Triple Panel card with video & measurements

  August 16, 2022

  ---

  Here's one more card I made during last week's FB Live with the free Rings of Love designer paper in our Sale-a-Bration offering.  

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  I cut a 3 1/4" X 3" piece of the designer paper and then cut it into three 1" strips.  I then layered it onto three strips of Evening Evergreen CS. 

  I textured the Crumb Cake layer with the Timber embossing folder – it's also a new Free Sale-a-Bration choice in August; with any $50 Stampin' Up! order.   

  I love how the three panels create a 'scene', making the DSP the star of the card.  See the Rings of Love DSP here.

  Measurements: 

  • Poppy Parade 5 ½”X 8 ½”
  • White is 5 ¼” X 4”, Crumb Cake 5” X 3 ¾”
  • Evergreen is 5 1/8” X 3 7/8”, DSP is 1” X 3 ¼”
  • Evergreen strips are 1 1/8” X 3 3/8”

• Perched in a Tree Explosion card with video tutorial!

  August 15, 2022

  I can't stop using the Aspen dies!  I absolutely love this tree die-cut!  

  Did you know these dies are free during August with our Sale-a-Bration promotion?  Any $100 Stampin' Up! order and they're yours free!

  I created this card on last week's FB Live video.  You can watch it here.  

  For the card front, I simply added a layer of the Rings of Love DSP behind it for a soft background.  You can keep it this simple or create your own background!  

  However I made the inside of the card extra special with an Explosion fold. These look so difficult to do but honestly they're not!  Please watch the video; afterwards you'll want to make one!

  The left card has the Rings of Love DSP and the card on the right features the Storybook Gnomes designer paper.  For greetings I used the Soft Seedlings & Perched in a Tree stamp sets.

  I also shared an easy ribbon trick in the video; if you have trouble with bows I hope you watch.
