Christmas Tree Gift Card Holder tutorial

Today I am going to show you how to make a simple Christmas tree shaped gift card holder.

I used the 'Treemendous Wishes for a sparkling holiday season' stamp from the Oh Christmas Puns set.

Here you can see where the gift card is hidden in the finished card.

First, I cut a piece of scrap paper into a 5x7 rectangle. That's the size envelope that I wanted my finished card to fit in. fold that paper in half, sketch the tree on it - using up as much space as possible, and then cut out the template.

Trace the template onto your chosen patterned paper to create the back of the card.

Then you want to cut the template into the three tiers of the tree. Trace those tiers onto your patterned paper, but be sure to extend the top edge of the bottom two tiers by about a half inch to allow for an overlap and adhesive.

Glue the top two tiers together. Glue the bottom tier to the back of the card using adhesive just on the sides and bottom to create a pocket.

Finally, add a little adhesive to the back of the top part of the tree so that it sticks to the gift card. Then have fun embellishing!

A Gift Espressly For You

Hi!! This is Jennie from Earthy Scrap.

This week we are in a giving mood 

so we are making gift related projects!!

The Image and the sentiment are from

 the Tag You're It Set Number One.

I did this for my mom. She loves coffee and everyone says she makes the best coffee. I don't drink coffee but I found her some coffee samples that I know she would love. 

However you can also use it as a gift card holder. 

On the inside I made little pockets like a folder where you can put the gift card and, tea or coffee samples.

I just decorated a little with some washi tape and Ta-Da!!

I hope you liked my project!!

**Remember that I'ts All Fall Puns is now available for 14.99!!

A Tree-t for You!

Hello Crafters, Nina here again! I am so excited to share today's card! It's something I have never done before! It's a tree-t! :)

I used both my Silhouette Cameo and my punches on this card! Did you see the fun sentiment among the grass? Leave it to Joy for the puns! "a tree-t for you" is from Yummy Puns (yes, it is BACK IN STOCK!) 

 Shop for Joy's stamps here. Want to know what is the tree-t?Check out my blog post here.

Thank you for stopping by. Happy Crafting!

A Little Something Yummy

Hello Everyone, Nina here with a little gift box I put together for a crafty friend! She just got her Cameo and I think it would be nice to send her a download card with some sweet crafty goodies in a tin box from Joy's store:) 

The good thing about using washi tape on the CD Box is that everything can be reused by the crafty friend! Even the tapes can be peeled off and put on a project :) I stamp the sentiment "A Little Something Yummy" (Tag You're It Set One) directly onto the CD Case with some StazOn Cotton White Ink (which can be removed by the StazOn cleaner :) Yummy!

And here is what is inside:

You can find more details on how I made the tape punch-outs on my blog here.

This has been a fun and crafty month on the blog, many wonderful projects by the design team girls. Can't wait to see their new creations! Don't forget to follow the blog :) Happy Crafting!
