It’s that time of year! It’s gift-giving time. We buy a lot of gift cards. So, we need a special, hand-stamped holder for them.
I love this particular design. It fits perfectly in one of Stampin’ Up!’s medium envelopes.

I love the Penguin Playmates Designer Series Paper, especially the side of the paper without the penguins. Weird, right? But, the colors lend themselves to so many projects.
See this post for cards created with the Delicate Dahlias stamp set and the Penguin Playmates DSP.

Soft Sea Foam – 3 ½” x 3 ½”
Basic White, 5 ¼” x 4”, scrap
DSP – 2 ½” x 5”, 1 ¼” x 5”
Ribbon – 6“, 3”
Instructions:
With Gorgeous Grape ink, stamp the Merry Christmas sentiment from the Peaceful Deer stamp set onto a Basic White scrap. Die cut with the rectangle label from the Beautiful Trees Dies.
Die cut the 3 ½” x 3 ½” Fresh Freesia card stock with the largest circle from the Layering Circle Dies and the largest scallop on the 3 ½” x 3 ½” Soft Sea Foam card stock. Adhere these together.
With adhesive of choice, place the two DSP pieces onto the 5 ¼” x 4” Basic White card stock, as shown above, with the 1 ¼” piece on the left and the 2 ½” piece placed right next to it, leaving a small white border around.
Place a Glue Dot on each end of the 6” piece of ribbon. Wrap the ribbon around the above layer and affix Glue Dots in the back.
With adhesive of choice, attach this piece to the front of Fresh Freesia 8 ½” x 5 ½” card stock that’s been folded in half to create a base.
Place one Glue Dot in the center of the snowflake. (Note: there is a shiny side and a matte side to the snowflake. I like the shiny side to face up.) Center the snowflake on the circle.
Pop up the snowflake circle on the front of the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Put two or three Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals on the sentiment and place on top of the snowflake, near the bottom.
Tuck the 3” piece of ribbon underneath the ribbon on the card and tie a knot, as shown above.

Triangle Santa Hat Card
Like most card makers and crafters, all the beautiful paper attracts my attention, including Stampin’ Up!’s Red Velvet found on page 63 of Stampin’ Up! August-December Mini Catalog. You get two sheets of 12 x 12 soft flocked card stock for $6. It works well for both punches and dies. I decided to have some fun with it and created a Santa hat! In fact, I couldn’t decide on some of the elements, so I made two.
This first card includes:
Pear Pizzazz card stock base
Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper cut at 5 1/2 inches by 4 1/4 inches
Pear Pizza layer cut at 5 inches by 3 1/2 inches and embossed with Subtle Embossing Folder
Pom pom created with Small Bloom Punch and run through the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder
Hat band created with piece from Rectangle Dies and run through the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder
Letters die cut with Playful Alphabet Dies and Red Velvet. (I attached Adhesive Sheets to the dies before running them through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine. That makes it easier to apply letters to the card front.)
Red Rhinestone embellishments
