Christmas Gift Card Holder

My old retired Christmas Punch Stamp set helped to finish off these gift card holders.

Directions:
Cut card stock to 4 1/2" x 6 3/4"
(In landscape) Score @ 1 3/4" and 4 1/2"
(In portrait) Score @ 1/4" on both edges (this forms the flaps to glue together)

Front DSP size: 2" x 3 1/2"

I used a velcro dot to hold the card shut.

Sending Christmas Wishes

I am trying to be frugal and use the paper I have. Hence another post using last years SU Designer Series Paper. I figure that is OK as you get the idea and can substitute any paper and stamp to CASE (Copy and share everything) this card.

Remember to take time to enjoy the moments this holiday season.

Simple Card- Holiday Wishes



Don't forget to take a look 
through your old stamps for those favorites.
I picked the stamp set called 
"Holiday Collection" 
and used it here.


The solid green along the 
top of the card is SU Gumball Green cardstock.
The DSP is a few scraps 
leftover from last years collection, set on an angle.


Choose any element in place of the snowflake.
This snowflake is punched out of 
glitter paper and raised with a SU Dimensional.
I used my paper piercing tool, 
mat and template to create the holes under the DSP. 


Set of 4 with stamped envelopes.


Up close view of piercing line.

One Sheet Wonder Gift Bags (w/video tutorial)

Hey folks...been busy here, both at work and home. I wanted to share some pictures with you of my craftivities. Had a craft show a week ago and you can see on the top shelf some flower gift bags. Those bags created some interest especially for the holidays. Below (green and red bags) is a custom order I got done today. The blue and yellow version is a bag I created while filming a video tutorial. Thing is, after I filmed the video, it is off 1/4 of a turn...ugh! How did that happen? Appears as the video is still turned wrong here on my blog.

I'll add a link to follow to 
YouTube where it is playing correctly.

Watch the video below to see how to create this bag.
