Video Tutorial – A Simple Gift Card Holder with Countryside Corners Dies

Video Tutorial – A Simple Gift Card Holder with Countryside Corners Dies

Make a Gift Card Holder with Laura Milligan using Countryside Inn by Stampin' Up!
I wanted to send a coffee gift card to a friend – and of course wanted to make it look cute!  This is what I came up with – it’s cute and quick – my favorite kind of project!!!
And really, the possibilities for this are endless – instead of a gift card, what about a tea bag?  Or a chocolate square?   The base of this gift card holder is the new Countryside Inn dies, and then of course the Cheerful Daises bundles adds the cuteness factor!   I love the Lemon Lolly color – it’s one of our new Core Colors and is quickly becoming a favorite of mine!
Here’s the recording- What do you think?

A Snowman Gift Card Holder with Lucy!

A Snowman Gift Card Holder with Lucy!

create a snowman gift card holder with Laura Milligan and Lucy Live Stampin' Up! Earn Free Bees

Lucy was here on Friday and she has been wanting to do a Facebook Live –  so we did one  on my I’d Rather Bee Stampin’ page.

We created a cute Snowman (or for Lucy it was a Snow- woman!) gift card holder.  It’s that time of year – I give a lot of Gift Cards and love this idea – inspired by a card I received from Connie Babbert.

With just a few supplies, most of which you probably have on hand, this gift card is quick and easy to make!  The Gift Card slips behind the brim of the hat – and I love that it will fit in a regular envelope for mailing – if you need to put yours in the mail.

Laura and Lucy

You can see how we created the gift card holder by watching my Facebook Live video below.

Here’s a view of the back of the gift card holder:  Our words are from the Holly Jolly Wishes stamp set – it is such a great set for Christmas sayings.
