PALS DECEMBER CELEBRATIONS BLOG HOP

 

We're so glad you could join us for the final Pals Blog Hop of 2012! Today the Stampin' Pretty Pals are excited to celebrate all of our favorite occasions of the year! And what's a little celebration without some sparkle?!

You've probably hopped over from Kerry Willard Bray at Stampgoodness, I'm stop number 6 on the Pals Hop and I'm glad you hopped in! I'll help you "hop along" from blog to blog where you'll find great ideas for Stampin' Up! products from the Stampin' Pretty Pals! Should you hop off course, simply click on any of the links in the Pals Hop Line-up below and you'll be back on track. 

My December Celebrations project is a Holiday Gift Card Holder. Just untie the ribbon and reveal the special gift card inside...I got the instructions for making this project from a YouTube tutorial by Dawn Griffith.

For my project, I started with Cherry Cobbler card stock which was cut and folded to make the card holder.  I then embossed the front with the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder adding a band Champagne Glimmer Paper to add a bit of sparkle.  One more time through the Big Shot using the Top Note Bigz Die to get the final shape.


I embossed the sentiment using Stampin' Emboss Powder in gold and tied the ribbon up with 1/2" Seam Binding Ribbon in Very Vanilla.

Here's what it looks like inside. Just tuck your gift card inside the slot and wait for the big reveal.
