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

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!

  • A Shaker Card anyone can make with the Peaceful Deer bundle

    Have you ever made a shaker card?  Have you thought it was too much work to bother with or maybe you thought you needed special supplies? 

    Well today I'm sharing a fun & EASY shaker card idea. The only special thing you need is a clear envelope or cello bag.  

    And the Deer Punch is now available!!!  Get it here.

    These cards are so fun and interactive.  You will be so proud to give one of these. One of my favorite things about this type of shaker card is that it isn't thick so it requires no extra postage. 

    1st step: add a white punched deer from the Deer Builder punch popped up with a Dimensional. 

    2nd: Insert into your clear envelope and add a good pinch of Subtle Shimmer sequins. 

    3rd: Fold the envelope over tightly to keep the sequins on the side of the DSP you want. Secure the flap. 

    Here's a photo of the back of the shaker part.  You can see the back side of the designer paper and where I folded the clear envelope over to secure.  A small cello bag would also work here.  

    After the shaker part is done just add your frame over it securing with adhesive.  Add to the card and finish!

    Here's a version featuring the Whimsy & Wonder specialty designer paper; it works wonderfully here.  The card base and ink are Mint Macaron. The greeting is from the Peaceful Deer stamp set and the die-cut is from Tasteful Labels dies.

  • Live tonight! Show off your Designer Paper with this fun layout!

    We're making these cards tonight on Facebook Live here.  Every other Monday I host a 'Stamp with Me' Live where we use our Designer Paper in fun ways.  

    I love this layout!  It is perfect for small patterns of Designer Paper. Turning squares on the angle adds a lot of playful interest to your card and showcases one main image, die-cut or punch in the center.

    I post the measurements a few days before the Live event so you have the time to prep your pieces so we can complete them together.  

    I chose to use the Heartwarming Hugs designer paper from the Holiday catalog. (see it here)  And the Perfectly Plaid stamp set & Pine Tree punch.

  • A treat bag from an envelope? Yes!

    I cannot believe what a nice size this treat bag is – all from an A2 size envelope!  

    Envelope bag snowflakes Save

    Steps:

    1. First I stamped just the flap with snowflakes from the Snowflake Wishes stamp set using Coastal Cabana and Highland Heather inks.  Then I stamped the Highland Heather tag and heat embossed it with White embossing powder.  

    2. Next score 1" on the bottom and up both sides while the envelope is flat.  Fold on the score lines and press each fold well.

    3. Open up the envelope into a box. Secure the bottom corners to the flat bottom. 

    4. Die-cut the flap using the Basic Border dies. Add a second layer of Coastal Cabana – also die-cut.  

    5. Fill the bag with treats, wrap the mesh ribbon around it and add the tag.  Tie it into a bow.  Done!
