Gift Card Holder

Hi Everyone

I was checking out SCS and ran across a gift card holder that I haven't had a chance to create. There are a lot of different gift card holders out there but I thought this one was a lot of fun to create and really easy.

Step 1: cut card stock to 5 1/2" x 4"

Step 2: score at 2 1/2" and 5"

Step 3: cut card stock to 11" x 3/4"

Step 4: If you are using a solid card stock add your stamped images.

Step 5: Add adhesive (I've used sticky strip) to the 1/2" section (when you scored at 5" this left you a section that was 1/2" this is where the sticky strip is placed)

Step 6: Punch out a section for the 11" x 3/4" strip to go through. I've use the word window punch from Stampin Up but you could use any oval punch.

Step 7: Thread the 11" x 3/4" strip of cards stock through the punched hole.

The gift card is placed between the strip.

Step 8: Adhere the top of the 11" x 3/4 strip.

Here is a link to a picture tutorial that I found for this type of gift card.

Have fun and thanks so much for your visit.

Post-it Note Holder

Hi Everyone

Just a quick post-it note holder.

Supplies:

CS: 7 1/2" x 3 1/3"

DSP: 3 x 2 3/4", 3 x 2 1/4" , 3 x 1"

Velcro dot and accessories for closure.

Step 1: Take 7 1/2 x 3 1/3" card stock and score at 2 1/2", 2 3/4", 5 3/4" and 6.

Step 2: Glue on DPS

Step 3: Adhere your closure (I've used scallops, flowers or just ribbon)

Step 4: Adhere Velcro dot

These are super fast. If you use an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of CS you can get three out of 1 sheet.

I went to the Big Lots store and picked up a stack of 5 post it notes for $1.

Give it a try. Thanks for your visit.

Gift Tag Box

Hi Everyone

There is a cute gift tag box on page 14 of the Stampin' Up! 2009-2010 catalog that I've been wanting to try out. I'm so lazy when it comes to sitting down and working up dimensions for project so my first step is usually to do a google search and see if I can find a patter that is already out in blog land.

Well I've found such a blog and WOW how happy I was not only to find this project but the great blog that it was on.

This is pretty straight forward and was really easy to follow and up together. The biggest pain I thought about this project was trying to tie the silver cord.

You can find the pattern on Valerie's blog HERE.

The only alteration I made on the box was that I used a sheet protector instead of a window sheet. A sheet protector is much thinner but I didn't have any trouble with using it and it's a whole lot cheaper than a window sheet.

The stamps I used are all from SU! with SU punches.
Have fun giving it a try.

Thanks for visiting.
