Gift Card Holder

Remember the card I posted here that I made for my ex-manager when she moved into her new role here at work? Well in addition to the card, I also collected money from my co-workers so that we could get her a gift card as a "going away" gift. I wanted to present this to her in a special way, so I made this pop-up gift card holder.

Here it is all put together. I really love how this turned out.


When you slide the belly band off, and open the card, the gift card "pops" out of the center.

You can't see from the picture, but in the inside I also stamped the "Thanks a Million" sentiment from the Word Play stamp set. By the way, the gift card in the picture is just an old one I had and used for this photo shoot. I ended up collecting WAY more that $5o for the real gift card which we ended up including in this gift. :)

Daisy Investiture Invites

Today my Daisy Troop have their Investiture Ceremony. When a girl first joins Girl Scouts, they are "Invested" during the ceremony, meaning that they accept the Girl Scout law and everything it stands for. It is a quick little ceremony, but an important one. Since families are invited, at our last troop meeting we made invitations for the girls to take home. Here is pic of the sample one I made for the girls to follow:

I used Pacific Point card stock (the Daisy Girl Scout color). Next I cut out the two smallest flowers from the Flower Folds die using Whisper White card stock. I layered these and placed one of the buttons from the Sweet Stitches Big Designer Buttons pack in the center. I printed out the "You're Invited" sentiment on the computer and punched it out using the oval punch and layered it on a scallop oval punched out of Daffodil Delight card stock. The inside of the card has all the details for the ceremony.

Before our troop meeting I pre-cut all the pieces so all the girls had to do was assemble their cards. I let them pick out their own buttons so they could choose from any of the 4 colors that come in the pack. Here is Aimee's invite:

Too cute! The girls really enjoyed making them and are excited for their ceremony today!

Cards from January Technique Class

Today I have the cards from my January Technique Class to share with you. For this first card, we used the Faux Silk technique:

For this next card we used the Black Magic technique:

We did this card so that everyone got a chance to use all the fun Valentines Day goodies that come in the Filled with Love bundle. This card also uses the new Letterpress Plates.

And this last one my look familiar, as it is a card that I made before. I everyone made one of these so that they could try out the new Build a Cupcake punch and coordinating Create a Cupcake stamp set. Needless to say, both the punch and the stamp set were my best sellers that day!
