Gift Card Holders with Stampin' UP! Merry Little Labels Stamp Set

Stampin' UP! Demonstrator StampingMerry - Gift Card Holders with Stampin' UP! Merry Little Labels Stamp Set

I don't know about you but some years coming up with ideas for Christmas gifts is way too hard. This year I decided to make it nice and easy and give Gift Cards.

I wanted to be able to present them in a pretty way so here is a great idea for a Gift Card holder and a little treat bag to hold it all.

The holder uses a piece of 6inch x 5 1/4 inch card. This is scored at 3/4inch on both sides of the short side. Score again on the longer side at 1 1/4inch and 3 3/4inch.
Cut along top and bottom 3/4inch tabs and remove them so you are just left with the middle tabs in place.
You will need to knotch in the side tabs slightly so the holder closes easily.
Fold in the side tabs and the smaller bottom fold and adhere.

I then adhered the holder to Stampin' Up! Designer Series Paper (click products below for more details).

I really liked how the first one turned out so I made a other one!

The Gold Striped Treat bags are my "go to" item for gift packaging this season. LOVE THEM!

Introducing Stampin' Blends Markers by Stampin' Up!

Stampin' UP! Demonstrator StampingMerry - Introducing Stampin' Blends Markers by Stampin' Up!

I am so lucky I found Stampin' UP! Why??
Because Stampin' UP have introduced new Stampin' Blends, Alcohol-based blending markers which are available in 12 exclusive Stampin' UP! colours.

https://www3.stampinup.com/ecweb/default.aspx

I am no artist that's for sure but these blends are so easy to use that you really cant go wrong. For today's projects I used Pink Pirouette and Pool Party blends for my birthday girl.

I used the blends also to colour the white doilie which I placed behind the image.

For the next project I used the Daffodil Delight and Smokey Slate blends for the door. Love how this gift packaging turned out. The striped gift bags are so great.

One last thing before I sign out...you don't have to purchase ALL the colours at once. You can buy single markers or combinations... light and dark ones.. whatever you choose so it makes them really affordable. I went for the softer shades for my first purchase but will probably go for some deeper shades a little later on.

If you click the blends image below it will take you directly to my online shop where you can see all the options available for the Stampin' Blends.

Gather Together featuring Stampin' UP Painted Harvest Stamp Set

Stampin' UP! Demonstrator StampingMerry - Gather Together featuring Stampin' UP Painted Harvest Stamp Set

Hi there and thank you for stopping by this weeks blog which features the Painted Harvest stamp set by Stampin' UP!

I really like the sentiment Gather together and give thanks.
I love that I can use this wonderful sentiment in a card to send to my family who often gather together.
Even if I cant be with them in person at a gathering, sending a card reminds them I am still thankful.

This was an easy card to make. Stamping the flower image in Daffodil Delight and Peekaboo peach Classic Stampin' UP! ink and cutting out using the Stitched Shape Framelits.

I adhered the leaves,thread and doilies under the die cut stamped image and placed on top of the Designer Series Paper.

The edging is made with the Ticket Tear border punch to create another layer under the designer series paper.

If you would like to see the supplies I used to make this card, please click any of the images in the product list below.
