Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day! More Giftcardholder Ideas!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day! More Giftcardholder Ideas!

Hey there! Last night my husband surprised me with tickets to see "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever" at the Marion Civic Center! yay! I've been reading the book every Christmas to my family since my kids were little, and even though they are big kids now, they still love it! I do to! It was a sweet production. I always tear up when Gladys says "hey! Unto YOU a child is born!" Gives me goosebumps just writing it! It was nice to get out after being snowbound since Thursday. Roads, sidewalks, and parking lots are still treacherous, and we are supposed to get "snow showers" again today, so church was cancelled for today. Oh well, one more day to stay in my jammies and stamp!

Since I have that new bunch of swaps, I think I will share a few more of them with you today:

Stampin_up_a_dozen_thoughts_1

Rene Watson used the Envelope Liner Framelit Dies to put together her holder (it could also be a card with the greeting page pulling out of the top!). She used Old Olive cardstock, Season of Style Designer Paper, Festive Flurry stamps and Framelit Dies, Cherry Cobbler 1" Stitched Edged Ribbon, and "just because" from the A Dozen Thoughts stamp set.

Stampin_up_festive_flurry_1

This design is the first giftcardholder style I learned to make! Katy Simecka used the Festive Flurry stamps & framelits bundle with Pool Party, Whisper White, the Northern Flurry folder and Silver 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon!

Stampin_up_festive_flurry_2

The unique feature of this one is the Whisper White Medium Envelope that is the working part of the holder. Just fold the envelope in half, cut the flap in half at the fold, stick down the left side of the flap, then leave the right side open to slip the gift card in!

Stampin_up_a_gift_for_you_1

Barb Dykhouse used the Pop n' Cuts Card Base Die, A Gift For You Single Stamp, Crumb Cake cardstock, Season of Style Designer Paper, Oval punches, adn the Label Bracket Punch for her gift card holder.

Stampin_up_a_gift_for_you_2

Simple and easy with the Pop 'n Cuts Card Base Die, just cut out, score a couple of times, and decorate!

Stampin_up_warmth_wonder_1

Ruth Anne Lilley used  Warmth & Wishes Hostess and More Merry Messages stamps, Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White, and Old Olive cardstock, Season of Style Designer Paper, Petals-a-Plenty Textured Impressions Folder, and the 2 3/8" Scallop Circle and 1 3/4" Circle punches for this cute little pop-up gift card holder!

Stampin_up_warmth_wonder_2

Inside she used the Word Window Punch, punching a couple of time side-by-side to create the slot of the gift card!

Stampin_up_teeny_tiny_wishes_1

And last-but-definitely-not-least, Tamie Ackerson used the Pop 'n Cuts Card Base Die again for her adorable Snowman holder! Punches, markers, and sponging were used to create his perky little face, and the Bird Builder Punch does a great job looking like "holly"! Doesn't the Silver Glimmer Paper cut with the smallest Festive Flurry Framelit look a little bit like a sheriff's badge?

Stampin_up_teeny_tiny_wishes_2

The inside features a pull-up greeting, in addtion to the gift card pocket!

Stampin_up_teeny_tiny_wishes_3

Tamie used Teeny Tiny Wishes for the outside greeting, and Wishing You for the pull-up greeting!

Well, that's all for today! Even though we aren't going to church today, I still want to make a Sunday-dinner-worthy meal! Most of my kids are staying snug in their homes today, but Troy is coming over for lunch! yay!

Stampin’ Up! Another Be Merry Gift Card Holder From the Swap!

Stampin’ Up! Another Be Merry Gift Card Holder From the Swap!

Hey there! WOW! We have about 18 inches of snow here in Southern Illinois! It started with freezing rain on Thursday around noon, turned to snow by the evening, and didn't stop until late Friday! Everything around here came to a screeching halt, including the craft fair I was participating in today, so I'm snug at home with my laptop! (and my stamps!)

This morning it is bright and shiny with the sun out and a blanket of snow everywhere! My husband is helping Ben get his car out right now so he can go to work. He works part-time doing appliance delivery and yesterday was one of his usual full days of work, but even that got called off. Guess it's not a good idea to be handling large appliances in the snow! Today he works the whole day too, although I can't imagine what they can do with all this snow. The main roads in Mt Vernon will be pretty clear by now, but all the residential and sidewalks? Ben should have quite a day!

I'm still working on prepping the packets for my Christmas Catch-Up & Customer Appreciation Event next Friday. I've already shown you all 12 projects, so I don't have any new creations to share, but I do still have quite a few of this month's swaps you haven't seen, so for the next few days I will share some of those until I get a chance to stamp something new. Today's sample was created by Carla Starry:

Stampin_up_be_merry_1

Carla used the Pop 'n Cut Card Base Die for her creation, along with the Be Merry Single Stamp, Gumball Green & Whisper White cardstock, Polka Dot Parade Designer Paper, In Color Patterns Designer Paper Stack, Chery Cobbler ink, Gumball Green Marker, Real Red 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon, Modern Label Punch, and the Small Oval Punch.

Stampin_up_be_merry_2

The full length of the die is 11", so there is room to score & fold to create the holding section for a gift card. This die even cuts the little slits for the built-in tabs to insert into, so it goes together in a snap!

That's all for now! The craft fair has been postponed for another week, so I just might have time to make a few of these to sell! We shall see. I have quite a list of "to do's" in front of me right now, including getting out my family & church Christmas Cards, so this item will have to go to the bottom of my list. In case you haven't noticed, I have  problem with saying "no", even to myself! I just want to do it all! I'm working on prioritizing, and sometimes I do a good job, but other times I just love all these cute projects so much I just HAVE to make them!

Stampin’ Up! Be Merry Gift Card Holder, the 12th Project!

Stampin’ Up! Be Merry Gift Card Holder, the 12th Project!

Hey there! Last night I went to see the Disney movie, Frozen, with my son, Ben. He invited me to go with him, and even though I am deep in the prep for my Christmas Catch Up Class next week and the Ina Craft Fair this Saturday, I couldn't let an opportunity to go out with my son go by, so I went! It was a FUN movie! I loved the story, the characters, and especially the music! We both laughed a lot, and thoroughly enjoyed the time! Now I need to make a project with all the beautiful snowflake-y inspiration! But.Must.Stay.Focused.

I just keep finding more cute ideas I want to share with everyone at the Christmas Catch Up Class, but I need to stop! Before I do stop, though, I'm adding JUST ONE MORE project to make it an even dozen, and I think you will see why this one just HAS to be included:
Stampin_up_be_merry_gift_card_holder_1

I received this from Ruth Bingle in the monthly swap I participate in. Isn't it gorgeous? I love how rich and elegant this color combo is! This project combines the Be Merry and Dictionary single stamps with Season of Style Designer Paper, Cherry Cobbler 1/2" Seam Binding, and Basic Black, Very Vanilla, and Baked Brown Sugar colors. Yay!

Stampin_up_be_merry_gift_card_holder_2

Inside is a simple pocket to hold a gift card, money, or anything you want to tuck in! "Oh what fun!" as this saying from Christmas Messages goes!

That's all for now! It's back to cutting paper, writing up directions, putting together packets, and making up craft fair goodies as I go! Maybe I'll find a few minutes to get the snowflake-y inspiration down on paper today, especially since we are supposed to get a few inches of white stuff this evening!

Stampin’ Up! Wishing You File Folder Gift Card!

Stampin’ Up! Wishing You File Folder Gift Card!

Hey there! I just spent the day with Liam and Jaxon again! Good times! They are so fun! At one point they were both dancing to the music of a Curious George movie I had playing for them and Jaxon pulled on my hand and said "up!" because he wanted me to dance with them! It's hard to dance with tears streaming down your face, but I managed, then thanked God for these precious little fellows I get to love!

Today's project is another made with the Envelope Punch Board, this time a "file folder" gift card holder:

Stampin_up_wishing_you_1

I used the Wishing You stamp set (#131748 wood-mount $14.95, #131751 clear-mount $11.95) for the greeting and on the Notecard Envelopes (#131528 $5.50 for 40 Crumb Cake envelopes measuring 5 1/8" x 3 5/8") Did you even KNOW these existed in the catalog? They are on page 162 of the Annual Catalog. They are so cute!

I made the gift card holder to fit inside the envelope. I adhered the Season of Style Designer Paper (#132340 $10.95) to the front flap and the Season of Style Designer Washi Tape ( #132155 $4.95) to the Crumb Cake base before punching with the Envelope Punch Board (#133744 $19.95) and then cutting off the excess with my Stampin' Trimmer (#126889 $29.95).

I wrapped a piece of Cherry Cobbler 1" Stitched Edge Grosgrain Ribbon (#132135 $8.95) around both card flaps to create the pouch for the gift card. After stamping the greeting from Wishing You with Cherry cobbler ink, I punched it out with the 1 3/4" Circle Punch (#119850 $16.95) and adhered over the ribbon with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430 $3.95)

You can shop for all the supplies to make these little babies in my Online Store:

www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

As long as you get your order placed by December 17th you should receive your order before Christmas!

This little gift card holder is the final project we will be making at my Christmas Catch-up and Customer Appreciation Open House on December 13th! Now to just get busy and prep all the packets!

That's all for now! I'm really excited for Wednesday. Not only do I have the whole day to be at home with no where to go (it's amazing how seldom that happens!), but my Spring Occasions Catalog pre-order arrives tomorrow too! Yippee! I ordered a BUNCH of fun new stuff that we will be playing with starting in January!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
