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!

Feels Like Home Sale-a-Bration swaps

September 6, 2021
We had our monthly Flowerbug's Team meeting this weekend and as usual swapped cards. This month we chose a Sale-a-Bration theme. Here are two pretty cards I am sure you'll love.

The first is made by Tracey. She used the Feels Like Home stamp set and a monochromatic look with Cinnamon Cider. I love the fact that you do not have to color this set in. It's beautiful stamped in one color! See this stamp set here.

Save

It's such a rich color! She added tons of texture & details to this card including the torn edges.

Details:
- Stacked Stone background stamp
- One ink – Cinnamon Cider
- Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder
- Greeting tag die-cut from the In Bloom dies
- Champagne rhinestones

This next card is made by me in Black, Cherry Cobbler & White.

Save

I stamped the image in Black Memento ink and colored in just the door with Cherry Cobbler blends markers. It adds that fun pop of color. It's also less time consuming than coloring the entire image.

Other details: Silver metallic pearls, heat embossed image punched out with the Double Oval punch.

I added a 2" strip of the Beautifully Penned designer paper on the left. I do love Black & White paper!

This paper is also a free choice during our Sale-a-Bration promotion. You can see it here.

Delicate Dahlias & Very Versailles

September 3, 2021

Look at this pretty, multi-layered card made by Roxann. She used the Delicate Dahlias stamp set and the Very Versailles.

Save

Her colors are Pale Papaya, Vanilla & Black. She stamped the Dahlia twice; once on the large Vanilla and again on a scrap to fussy cut. It's a 2-step stamp set with a DistINKtive look. What is DistINKtive mean? It's a process Stampin' Up! created that gives a multi-toned look with just one ink color.

Look at the detail and multiple hues on these stamps!

3 techniques for the Delicate Dahlia’s stamp set with video

September 2, 2021

I featured the Delicate Dahlia's stamp set on Tuesday's FB Live. This stamp set is free with a $100 order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion happening now. See it here. There are three pretty cards using different techniques on each.

Save

This first technique is called Watercolor Ink Spread. The colors are Magenta Madness & Mango Melody. I was going for bright & happy colors,

Save

This technique involves heat embossing an outline image and adding water & ink. It is recommended to use watercolor paper but it worked fairly well on our Basic White. However for larger petals or leaves I suggest you use our watercolor paper. Check out the video below for tips.

This next set of cards is basic 2-step stamping. In the video I share a helpful tip on lining up two step stamps. The Stamparatus can be best for most applications but I was stamping all over the panels and did not use it.

Save

All of the images are in this beautiful stamp set. The colors on the left card are Coastal Cabana, Black, White & Vellum. The right is Basic Bray, White, Bumblebee & Vellum.

I did use our Black glittered ribbon on both. I did heat emboss a flower on vellum and fussy cut it. It's colored with Blends markers.

Save

And here is the video; I hope you enjoy watching it to get tips on these two sets of cards plus one more on Poppin' Pastels!
