Hello friends and Merry Christmas!! Oh what a wonderful day for all the kids and us parents too, I hope you were all good and Santa dropped off a couple of crafty gifts!

I usually have some gift cards to pass out during the Holidays and I thought I would make some gift card holders using the "New" Mini Treat bag for the cards.  This die set come with a lot of dies which is perfect die to add to your collection.  

The Mini Treat Bag Die will be available on Jan. 6th from the Occasions Catalog,  Thank you so much for stopping by and have a wonderful Christmas with your families!!!




I love the "Visions of Santa" photopolymer stamp set 
and I've used it a few times.





The Mini Treat Bag measures about 3-3/4" X 5-1/4" and is perfect for treats, gift cards and money! LOVE LOVE this cute bag and I know I will get a lot of use out of this die, especially with Valentines around the corner:)





I did use the Cherry Cobbler Blendabilities to color the deer and santa.  I also used some ribbon from my stash and the green paper.

Hello friends,
Welcome and thank you for stopping by to take a peek into my blog on your busy day of shopping. Stampin' Up! has some great deals and I hope you will take advantage on this Black Friday Extravaganza SALE and get those items that have been on your wish list.  Make sure you leave a comment for a chance at my Blog Candy Giveaway, details below. 

I will also be giving away a Petite Purse kit to every person that places an order with me on Nov. 28 to Nov.30 (the unassembled kit will vary in color and flowers) You can take a look at the Petite Purse I posted HERE.

Today, I created a gift card holder perfect for those last minute gift cards! 
In the front I used the adorable stamp "Vision of Santa" and paper pieced Santa's Pajamas:) I also used the Banners Framelits Dies which are on 
SALE over my On-Line store so make sure you grab these dies , I believe these dies are a staple in your dies collection.  Take a look at my other card using these Banner Framelits Dies HERE.

You can make this gift card holder in minutes.  Take a 5-1/2 X 12 piece of card stock and score at 4" and 8" and fold, you will then need to cut one of the sides diagonal to make the flap that you see above to insert the gift card or money. I was totally inspired to make this gift card holder after watching Amadores video.

 *Now for some Blog Candy from ME!!  Now take a look at my BLOG CANDY below.  I will pick two winners one for the stamp and another one for the embossing folder and ribbon!  I will announce the WINNER on Dec.1 along with the winner from my Marker Solutions entry from this POST.  

*I will also giveaway a Petite Purse unassembled Kit to both winners. All you have to do is leave one comment on this post and become a follower of my blog.

I hope you enjoyed todays project and you will head on over to get more inspiration from my friend Rose over at Rose's World and for a chance at some more blog candy!!

Welcome Friends,
Happy Thursday! Wow can you believe how fast this week went by?? My goodness!! We had some rain here in Southern California last night and OMG! it was music to my ears!  I love it when it rains and I'm home enjoying my coffee or tea:)

Today's project is a case from our "Demo it" Stampin' Success Magazine and since I thought I would use the Holiday Stocking Die why not case this cute "GIFT CARD" holder and guys it seriously took me no time to put together!! Love it:) 

Thank you for stopping by and have a Fantastic Day!!

This stocking is a Case from our Demo it projects from our Stampin' Success magazine that we demos get every other month. I used the Festive Prints Designer Paper Pack from our Holiday Catalog which you can check out HERE.  The circles were punched with the 3/4" circle punch and I then added the glimmer brads.

This stocking is great to insert some money or a gift 

card for Christmas! I used the tiny Scallop punch and 

a button from the Neutral Collection for some added 

interest.  You can of course use what you have or change

 it up to suit your likes:)

I used the Vintage Faceted Designer Buttons and

sewed it to the 1/2" circle which I adhered to the flap.

The bow was created with the Bitty Banners Dies. I

embossed the flap with Northern Flurry Textured

Impressions Folder

I used the "Twitterpated & International Bazaar" Designer Paper for the gift card holders, I also used our circle punches to layer under our mini scallop punch. The Calypso Coral Ribbon is the finishing touch to keep the flap closed. 

A close up so you can see the Velcro I used on this one to have it close.  You can put any gift card inside or money!
