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!

Welcoming Woods Holiday Catalog Sneak Peak

July 28, 2021
With each new catalog I join a bunch of online swaps so I can get lots of samples to share with my customers. Both the Holiday catalog and a 2nd Sale-a-Bration catalog start on August 3rd! I know my customers started to receive theirs last week.

I loved the Welcoming Woods stamp set immediately. Nature, trees, 'scene building' sets are some of my favorites.

I went for a soft look of winter trees on my card.

Save

I stamped the trees in Crumb Cake ink onto the White CS. Then I added snowflakes in Balmy Blue ink and sponged a light 'mist' of Balmy Blue on the sky. Of course I added a few rhinestones for sparkle!

That beautiful Designer Paper is called Harvest Meadow.

Save

The tags for the greeting is from the Tailor Made Tags dies seen here.

Measurements:
- Crumb Cake card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
- White 3" X 4"
- Balmy Blue 3 1/4" X 4 1/4"
- Harvest Meadow DSP 2" X 4 1/4"
