Welcome to our December Blog Hop! This month's theme is Gift Card Holders, just in time for Christmas! Be sure to hop around to the blogs of my talented teammates below!
Sometimes, I like to use the actual gift card as inspiration for my gift card holder. I have this beautiful gift card from Bed Bath & Beyond!
I decided to use the retiring Whimsical Trees bundle with the gorgeous Christmas Trees Dies. The base is a 3” x 11” piece of Thick Basic White, scored at 2-1/4” and 7-1/4”. I also cut two pieces of Shimmery White Cardstock, 2-3/4" x 3-1/2" and 2-3/4" x 2". I used the Detailed Trio punch to round the corners, as shown. I used Blending Brushes to create the background with Pool Party, Pacific Point and Night of Navy inks.
The tree and tiny stars were die cut using the Christmas Trees Dies and Supple Shimmer 12x12 Specialty Paper, an upcoming product in the January to June 2022 Mini Catalogue, available January 4th! The star topping the tree was punched with the Starlit Punch. The tinsel on the tree was die cut in Basic White and highlighted with Wink of Stella.
The Joy sentiment was stamped in Versamark ink and heat embossed with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder. The inside sentiment was stamped in Night of Navy.
The tree was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Enjoy the rest of the blog hop!
