I do like making these little gift cards - they are quick to make and means I can use up some of my stash at the same time!
I've used one of the Oh Come All Ye Crafters paper collections from Funky Hand - Santa Baby - and I've printed on both sides of the card before folding and scoring it into the card holder.
I've added a line around the edges with a pink gel pen, tied some ribbon and then added two different (you can only see one!) chunky chipboard stickers which are layered and glitter! I've had them in my stash for ages! I bought quite a few different packs from the poundshop a few years ago as they are really good quality and only a pound a pack!!
I've added a panel to write on which is an offcut of card.
I'd like to enter the following challenges:
365 Day Cards: Day 264 - Ravishing Ribbon
Loves Rubber Stamps: Use Ribbon
Tuesday Alchemy: Anything But A Card
Hooked on Crafts: Christmas but no red or green
Paper Pretties: Anything But A Card
Totally Stampalicious: Non Traditional Christmas Colours
Papers: Santa Baby download from Funky Hand
Chipboard stickers: Poundshop
Everything else: My stash
Oh, what a sweet little gift card--love it--the papers are so cheery & the image so cute! :^)

ReplyDeleteOnce again Ruth you come up trumps with a wonderful creation. These Christmas gift cards are perfect. I'd say I'd 'borrow' your idea but I couldn't make them as well as you do.
