Gift Cards


Hi everyone,

A week or two ago I shared a gift card I created for a challenge with a couple of friends of mine using a Mini Side Stepper Card die which was a freebie on the front of a recent Tattered Lace Card. You can see that card here.



Seeing the gift card was so small I decided I needed to play with the die a little more for the challenge. As this die would be perfect to create some special gift cards for Christmas, I decided to go with that them for my gift cards today .... yes I know it is only March (shock horror) I think this is the earliest I have ever made something Christmas related and it was much choice!


To give you a sense of how small these gift tags are I have photographed three of them beside the round blending tool. 

I used three of the dies from Taylored Expressions Christmas Treat Topper die set to decorate my gift cards.


For the candy cane, I die cut the solid candy cane with Clear Double Sided Adhesive Tape on the front and added Warm Diamond Silk Microfine Glitter after adhering the candy cane to the back of the red candy cane.


For the Christmas Trees, I add Red/Gold Glitter Dot Peel Off Stickers to the circle die cuts on the tree.


And finally for the ornament I die cut the solid ornament with Clear Double Sided Adhesive Tape on the front of the solid and added Warm Diamond Silk Microfine Glitter after adhering the solid ornament to the red ornament. I then colored the glitter with a copic marker using a color from the designer paper.

Golf Nut


Hi Everyone,

My card today is for a challenge I do with a couple of friends of mine. Each month we get together and go to our favorite stamp/scrapbook store and come home with one or two new goodies. So we decided to also challenge ourselves each month using a product we all have.


Last month when we went shopping we each purchased the Tattered Lace Magazine which had this cute Mini Side Stepper Card die on the front as a freebie, so of course we decided to use that for our challenge this month.



The card made using the die is pretty tiny as you can see by the blending tool I have put beside the card. But it is adorable and I can see uses for it e.g. gift cards, place cards etc.

Seeing one of my friends I do this challenge with is celebrating her birthday today. I decided to use mine to put on her present I am giving her. I will share her birthday card in a few days.  My friend loves golf and I always do something golf related for her card.


Here is  side on view of the card soo you can see the folds in the card.



And finally the inside of the card.
