Fun Fold Gift Card Holder

I often find myself giving gift cards for birthdays, weddings and graduations.  I’ve had to get beyond the idea that it seems a bit impersonal, and realize often times it’s the most practical.  I love to be able to add my own personal touch by making a special card to hold the gift.  Today, I’m sharing a quick and easy card with a gift card pocket, yet it’s super cute and looks much more complicated than it really is!

 

I love the Timeless Tulips Stamp set.  It’s quick and simple, yet so very pretty! I stamped this tulip on one of the prints from the Playing With Patterns Designer Series Paper. It was the perfect variation of color for the flower.

 

The little hidden pocket on the inside is the perfect place to hold a gift card.

 

 

I’ve done a brief video sharing how to cut and fold the card.

Ornate Garden Suite – Class To Go

These past few months of Sheltering at Home has given us all a bit of time to reflect, reprioritize and learn to get things done differently.  Posting here on my Blog has never been a strength of mine.  To be honest, to sit and write about myself and things that I’ve been working on has never been within my comfort zone.  Technology in general just intimidates me!  But with a bit more time on my hands, and the need to stay in touch with my stamping friends I’ve been pulled from the comfort of my craft room and have decided to take this opportunity to learn a few new things…. so with that, as well as making a commitment to myself to connect more on my blog, I’ve also written my very first tutorial and I’m offering a Class To Go along with it.

I’m excited to share my Ornate Garden Suite Class To Go –

Make 4 beautiful cards, plus a card holder/folder using the Ornate Garden Suite new from Stampin’ Up!  You will love making these projects with this class to go.  The tutorial includes easy to follow step by step instructions.  There are 4 purchasing options for you to choose from.

Have a Joy-Filled Day!

Birthday Wishes –

This gorgeous card is one of the cards we’ll be making this weekend at my Spring Stamp A Stack.

Plan to join me!  We will be making 5 different cards, 2 of each design.

I love the way the Basic Black cardstock sets off the Rich Razzleberry Roses and the Sahara Sand stamped background adds to the elegance!

I added a few little Rhinestones to the centers of the flowers to give it a little sparkle.
