Great cards made with the Celebration Expression Memories & More pack

April 3, 2026

I hadn’t touched the Celebration Expression Memories & More cards yet; so I found an hour or so to create these:

Aren’t they fun? These printed Memories & More cards come in both 4″ X 6″ and 3″ X 4″ cards. They are discounted and retiring! See them here. I did use the ‘Memories & More cards and envelopes’ as the card bases which made it super simple. These cards are a nice size – 4 1/4″ X 6 1/4″ which is larger than our traditional size. They are now in the last chance list and retiring soon!

You’re likely wondering where the greetings came from. And I didn’t stamp a thing! Each of the greetings came from the Saying Something Ephemera pack. These are fabulous! They’re also discounted, in low inventory right now and will likely retire soon. See them here.

I’ll share these cards in sets of 4 next:

I did add a few layers of card stock on these cards to bring some solid backgrounds to the greetings. I also added some rhinestone gems & ribbons – Balmy Blue gingham, Timid Tiger 1/4″ and Bubble Bath 1/8″ ribbons.

It was so much fun to simply play with the cards, layering them or adding CS strips here & there. What a perfect way to create without a lot of product. This would be perfect to take to a crop or crafty play day with friends.

Last of the unique ‘Gift Card’ ideas with video!

December 10, 2021
I've shared two other special gift card ideas and today I have another. It's the last one I shared in this video.

It features the Penguin Place bundle seen here. And it's now available but on low inventory; once more. The punch was out of stock for a long time.

This penguin is super cute and quite versatile. Certainly not just for Christmas!

Details:
- His main body is punched out of Black glitter paper.
- I fussy cut his scarf from Heartwarming Hugs DSP.
- I stamped the snowflakes on the Black CS using our White Craft ink.
This card opens up like this:

There's a fold inside that brings up the 'gift card' when you lift up the card front. I did use Thick White CS for this so it stands up to lots of use. Isn't it fun? It's quite easy too!

Extra special Gift Card idea with a pop up ‘gift bag’ inside the card!

December 9, 2021
Here's another gift card idea for you. It looks harder than it is; honestly! It's a 'gift bag' inside the card!

Save

Here's the front view: I used the angled Heartwarming Hugs designer paper piece I cut off from this card I shared yesterday. I love it when I can use my paper efficiently!

Save

I kept the front very simple as you can see. The greetings are from the Encircled in Warmth stamp set seen here.

I even added 'tissue' using the Ever Eden cotton paper! It's a 6" piece I folded into points.

Save

I used our Real Red sheer ribbon on the front for both the bow and the 'handles' inside the bag. Below is a photo of the gift bag cut out. Measurements are included.

Save

Pop-up Gift Bag card measurements:
- Card base 4 1/4" X 11"
- White – two at 4" X 5 1/4"

Need Gift card ideas? I have three!

December 9, 2021

Last week I created 3 different gift card options on Facebook Live. You can see it here.

I'm sharing the first one today:

Save

I used the Heartwarming Hugs designer paper seen here) and the Encircled in Warmth & Christmas Season bundle.

It's made from a 5 1/4" X 12" piece of designer paper; score it every 4". Trim off one angle for the pocket and adhere it to a 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" card base.

Save

Inside I added a 4 3/4" X 3 1/2" piece of White CS that I textured with the Star-Crossed embossing folder. I decorated the front & inside with stamped & die-cut images from the Christmas Season bundle seen here.

Depending on how you decorate this card it can be quite easy to make! Below is the video for this one & 2 more gift card options. I'll share details on another tomorrow.
