Anything but a Card!! Feed

Gifts for my Stamp Club!

Good morning!  This fun treat was a gift for my stamp club ladies last weekend!

Aug cc gift

It's my version of a "thank you" card for their orders!  I used the Delicate Dahlias Stamp Set along with the Heartwarming Hugs DSP!  Simple but cute, I think!


Whimsy & Wonder

Happy Tuesday!  I'm so excited!  We're going to see "Mean Girls" tonight at Popejoy Hall (our version of Broadway!)  It's been two years since we've been to a show, and I'm beyond thrilled!!

Here's the final project from my Gift Cards Galore Class--this one features the absolutely adorable Whimsy & Wonder Specialty Designer Paper!  I love this paper--the images, the colors, all of it!!  It's soon to be retired, so if you love it, better get it now!

When opened:
Giftcard1

Again, not a hard one to make!  Cut your designer paper to 5 1/4" x 12"--take notice of the direction of the pattern because you can see both sides on this one!   Score this at 4" and 8".  Cut the bottom section in half from corner to corner.  You'll use Tear-n-tape on the left side of the triangle to form the gift card pocket!  Then, decorate as desired!

Here are the supplies I used:


Snowflake Wishes

Good morning!!  My Gift Cards Galore! class was held yesterday--so much fun!!  You saw one of the projects in yesterdays post (click HERE if you missed it!)  Today's features the Snowflake Wishes Stamp Set and a Basic White Envelope:

It's very simple to make--simply fold an envelope in half, then cut the flap down the middle.  Decorate as you wish!  Wouldn't this be a nice way to give a gift card?!

Fun & Simple Gift Card Holder!

Good morning!!  I have a super easy and fun gift card holder to share with you today!   

I used the Peaceful Deer Bundle, along with the wonderful Tidings of Christmas Designer Paper!

Giftcard3

And, here is is open:
Giftcard3

The card base is 4 1/4" x 11", scored in half at 5 1/2".  To make the piece that hold the gift card, just cut the front of your card at 3", from the score line to the bottom of the card!  I used Tear-n-Tape to adhere it to create the pocket!  Super easy!  And a fun way to send Gift Cards--especially if you need to mail them!

Here's another I made for my team swap on Friday night.  I used the Tidings & Trimmings Bundle, and the Tidings of Christmas DSP once again!
