I recently returned from Stampin’ Up!’s incentive trip to Maui! What a treat! The weather was beautiful, and the company spoiled the earners and their guests. I truly thank all of my friends, customers, team, and supportive husband for this awesome opportunity.
The event focuses mainly on relaxing, recharging, and connecting with other demonstrators. We didn’t have any planned stamping events, but we did exchange swap cards. To participate, I made 26 of one card. (See my card here.)
Then, we receive 25 different cards back! It’s so fun to see the variety of ideas presented by other demonstrators. (Review the video of the cards I received here. Hint: the card showcase takes place near the end of the video.)
Expressions in Ink Gift Card Holder
I really liked a card I received from Selene Kempton; it doubles as a gift card holder. I changed up the Designer Series Paper and the sentiment to make it my own.
My version uses the following products from Stampin’ Up!’s 2021-2022 Annual Catalog:
- Expressions in Ink 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper
- Sentiment from Peaceful Moments
- Fine Art Gold Ribbon
- Gold Foil Paper
Dimensions to cut the card stock, working from the top down:
- 4 1/4 x 2 3/4 — your choice of Designer Series Paper
- 4 1/2 x 3 — colored coordinating card stock
- 7 1/2 x 4 3/4, scored at 1 inch and 4 1/4 inches — white “base”
- 5 1/4 x 3 3/4 — colored coordinating card stock mat
- 1 x 4 3/4 — Designer Series Paper for the inside trim piece
