Today I am sharing a Gift Card/Money Holder created for the TGIF Challenge #347. Challenges are always a good place for me to start especially when I get stumped on what to create!
Here is the Challenge:
Here are my cards:
I created one card that is a bit more masculine and one that would fit just about anyone. Of course, money is a welcome gift and fits all sizes. Here is the inside of the gift card holder.
These were created on my Facebook Live and you can watch the replay HERE.

I have a beautiful blue card to share today. For this card I used the Time of Giving Bundle and paired it with Beauty of the Earth Designer Series paper. The blue background full of trees looks like the Smokey Mountains.
I stared with a Basic White card base and layered Night of Navy. I cut a piece of Basic White at 5 ¼” x 4”, stamped the sentiment with Night of Navy and embossed it with the Evergreen Forest Embossing folder. This piece is adhered directly to the card front.
To create the tag element, I used Night of Navy cardstock. The tag was die cut first using Tailor Made Tags then the Santa tag was cut from the first tag. I also cut a Tailor-Made tag of Beauty of the Earth DSP. Layer the two tags so the trees are peeking behind Santa.
Thread ribbon through the tag hole and tie off with a bit of white Baker’s Twine.
Adhere a snowflake in the left-hand corner and adhere tag using dimensionals.
Sprinkle rhinestones, stamp the inside sentiment and your card is complete.
Simple yet pretty. I hope you like it!

You can make four beautiful cards in minutes, and I can’t wait to show you how.
It is no secret that I love simple stamping. Stamping is what I fell in love with and while I enjoy using dies and Designer Series Paper, I always feel like I have returned home when I am stamping. Paper and ink and pretty images!
I saw a card on Pinterest by Akiko Sudano that sparked my interest. I decided to step it up by making 4 at one time.
Here is my card:
Here is how I stamped all 4 at the same time. In a jiffy.
I stated with an 11” x 8 ½” piece of Basic White. I lightly penciled lines at 4 ¼” and 5 ½”. I also penciled off angles as shown. This was to remind me to save space for my sentiment.
Then I started building my design. I kept adding layers and images until I was happy with the way it looked.
Next, I put the paper in my trimmer and cut it at 5 ½” and 4 ¼”. Now it was time to trim the 4 cards to 5 ¼” x 4” and stamp the sentiment. You can also go back and add any foliage or leaves that need touching up. I brushed Wink of Stella on the red berries for sparkle.
Mount the card front on Real Red cardstock and adhere to the card. Stamp the inside. All four cards done in less than 20 minutes.
I hope you will give this stamping technique a try. It is fun, fast and easy.

Paper piercing is a technique I love but forget about using on my cards.
I knew the cute coat and skirt on the lady from Delivering Cheer would look adorable with paper piecing.
My first card is for Thanksgiving or as a Thank you card. I used a damask pattern piece of DSP from the Pattern Party Host pack of DSP. A touch of color on her mittens, scarf and flowers finished the look. The background and side panels are Beauty of the Earth DSP. I would love for her to ring my doorbell and bring me flowers!
The second card is more fun, flirty, and fanciful. The buffalo check is from the same Pattern Party Pack. The side panel is from Heartwarming Hugs DSP.
These cards were shared on a Facebook Live. You can watch the replay on my YouTube ChannelHERE.

Today I am sharing a whimsical & fanciful pink Christmas card. This scrappy, shabby card is so easy to create and uses your scraps to make a fun card.
The best way to start this type of card is to cut your strips, distress one edge using your scissors or an old emery board. Adhere the strips in random order to a piece of 5 ½” x 4 ¼” cardstock. I used Tombow glue to make sure they were snug. Once all the pieces are adhered and dried you can trim it down to 5 ¼” x 4”. I then adhered the panel to a Mint Macaron card base.
Did you notice the glittery strips? They are Be Dazzling paper (from Sale-a-bration) dyed with Polished Pink reinker mixed with rubbing alcohol.
A vellum circle and Shimmer Vellum trees create the focal image. The glitter tree is also Be Dazzling paper. I dipped the ends of the twine bow in reinker, so cute. Rhinestones are scattered across the card front for extra glitter.

Eden’s Garden is an early release from the new mini catalog that will be available in January. I fell in love with the DSP the minute I saw it. It is so soft, shiny, and elegant. You can order it now, without having to wait until January!
A few weeks ago, a group of demonstrator friends go together and presented a showcase of videos using this collection.
I shared a trifold card that focused on the stunning Designer Series Paper. I love the way it turned out.
I also used the wreath idea from the Stampin’ Up concept artists. Don’t you just love the gold glitter frame?
