Don't Forget The Gift Cards!

As you're out (or online) shopping today, don't forget to pick up those handy gifts cards -- the perfect gift for everyone! And for the perfect gift you will need the perfect gift card holder! Well, these may not be perfect but they are pretty and so quick and easy to make using Stampin' Up! Rub-ons! Remember, the Rub-ons are on sale for 20% off until Sunday night, November 30th! Check out the flyer here!

Both these Gift Card Holders  use the Word Flurries Rub-ons (pg. 178 in the catalog) and Ski Slope Designer Series Paper, along with Baja Breeze and Chocolate Chip cardstock.

Isn't this first one cute? My upline, Judi Carpenter, shared this idea at our last gathering. It looks like a big ornament and indeed, would be cute as a package topper or hung on the tree! The back, scallop circle is cut with the Big Shot and the #4 Scallop Circle Die. The front consists of two circles cut with the Coluzzle Shape Cutting System. I applied the Rub-on and then put Dazzling Diamonds glitter on the little star bursts, using 2-way glue (click the photo to enlarge it and see the shimmer). The "hanger" is cut using the Round Tab Punch. I punched a hole with the Crop-a-Dile and tied on 3/8" Whisper White Satin ribbon, 1/4" Chocolate Chip Grosgrain Ribbon and a little Silver Metallic cord for an extra bit of bling. Inside the card, punch 3 slits with the Slit Punch to hold your gift card and there you have it! Quick and easy!

The second Gift Card holder is equally as quick and easy to do. You begin with a base that is 4.75 x 3.75". The folded part is 3.5 x 11 inches and you score it at 4.5 and 9" and fold on the score lines. You cut the 1/2 using a Circle punch and secure the smaller flap using two brads (see the smaller inside detail photo). Then you just decorate the front as you like. Your gift card slips inside easily!

There you go! Two more quick and easy projects for the Holidays using the versatile Stampin' Up! Rub-ons! Have I convinced you yet that you really need to order these while they're on sale! Let me know if I can help you with that!

Don't forget the Holiday Extravaganza sale is also going on through Sunday night! Don't miss out on these incredible values on select bundled stamp sets and supplies!

Happy Shopping and Gift-Giving, everyone!

Blessings, Gretchen
