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.

Dragonfly Garden Quick Fun-fold Card with video!

June 15, 2021
We made this pretty dragonfly card at last month's Card Clubs.

I knew I wanted to use the new In Color shimmer vellum and thought the Dragonflies punch would work perfectly. It sure did! I wish you could see the shimmer in person; it's beautiful!

Save

They had a choice of Polished Pink or Fresh Freesia for their card and could punch a variety of colors for their dragonflies.

Save

We used the Dragonfly Garden stamp set which is bundled with the Dragonflies punch in the bundle seen here. See how the wings are curled? The bone folder works beautifully for this. *Watch the video below to see how it's done.

Tip: I recommend using Stazon Black ink when stamping on the vellum so it dries quickly. Vellum paper doesn't 'absorb' ink easily so it can stay wet a long time.

Save

Below are the measurements for you and Download May Dragonfly Garden fun fold here
- Black base 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"
  Fresh Freesia or Polished Pink 3 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
  In Good Taste Designer paper 3" X 5 1/4"
  White strip 1" X 3"
  Shimmer Vellum scraps for Dragonfly punches
