Merry & Bright Gift Card Holder


This super bright and sparkly gift card holder was a project at my most recent Cards and 3D class.  I just love it!  It is a super easy project to make but makes such a huge impact!

I started by selecting two coordinating cardstocks from the 2011-2013 In Color Collection:
 Lucky Limeade (122926 $6.95 24sheets) and Island Indigo (122923 $6.95 24sheets).  
Next was selecting my stamp sets : 
Snowflake Soiree (Holiday Catalog W: 127922 $29.95 C: 127925 $21.95) 
and Merry and Type ( W 122550 $25.95 C: 122552 $18.95).  

I inked up the two smallest Snowflake stamps and stamped them in the coordinating ink in a random pattern on my cardstock.  I then used my coordinating In Color Markers ( 123002 $14.95 set of 5 colors) to color on my Sentiment stamp before stamping on Whisper White Cardstock (100730 $8.50 40 sheets).  I punched out my sentiment with the Decorative Label Punch ( 120907 $16.95).  I tied a length of Whisper White Organza Ribbon ( 114319 $5.95 15yds) around the cover sleeve and popped up my sentiment over it with Dimensionals.  My Silver Glimmer Paper ( 124005 $4.95 sheets ea. 12x12) snowflakes  were cut with the Snow Flurry Bigz Die (Holiday Catalog 127813 $21.95) and layered together with a Silver Brad (119741 $6.95 120 ct assorted Metallics) and popped up on a Dimensional.  

I love this little Gift Card holder and I hope you do too!

Thanks for stopping by today,
Mary
