Under the Mistletoe, Still Night, Beautiful Baubles, Detailed Baubles, All the Presents, Gift Card Holder - II

We are to expect periods of rain today with a high and low temp of 39F.  The winds are SE at 15 to 25 mph with higher wind gusts possible. 

My share for today is my last Christmas Gift Card Holder that I made with leftover pieces that I keep in a tray on my desk.  Let's take a look:


My Gift Card Holder Base is from Under the Mistletoe Designer Series Paper from the Annual Catalog.  I sometimes forget that there is Christmas products in the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog too!!!

 
My Snowflake is die cut using the Retired Snowfall Thinlits Dies from Old Olive Cardstock.

I used the new Sale-A-Bration Grapefruit Grove Foil Sheet to die cut my Bauble using the Detailed Baubles Thinlits Dies.  Look at the colors that this Foil pick ups.  It's just amazing the Rainbow of Colors that you can see in it every time you move it in the light!



Using the Layered Circles Framelits Dies, I die cut a Circle to fit behind the Detailed Bauble from Night of Navy Cardstock.

I added a Real Red Bow that I die cut using All the Presents Thinlits Dies.


Pictured above is the Gift Card Holder opened up.


I adhered 6 Clear (there is Frosted too) Epoxy Droplets onto the Bauble in the first Section.


Pictured above is the Center Section of the Gift Card Holder.  I stamped one of the Small Baubles in Old Olive Ink and die cut it out.  I also die cut out the Medium Size Solid Bauble and Detailed Bauble from Old Olive and Night of Navy Cardstock.



When I trimmed out my Gift Card Holder Base, I figured in a Fold Up Pocket to slide a Gift Card into!


I adhered the Bauble to a panel of Whisper White Cardstock that is a little larger than the size of the Gift Card and inserted it into the Pocket of the Gift Card Holder Base.


And, the third Section, I added another Whisper White Panel, my Sentiment from the Still Night Stamp Set and some of the Smaller stamped and die cut Baubles.


The last thing to do was to cut a length of Old Olive Linen Thread, tie it in a Bow and adhere it to the Small Bauble on the Pocket.

These Gift Card Holders are fun to create and decorate.  It's hard for me to stop creating them!!!  😊😊😊

If you have any questions about ordering or want instructions to make any of my Cards and/or Projects, please e-mail me at dodge3670 at aol dot com.  I will no longer be putting the instructions on my blog posts.  If you leave a comment in the comment section, I cannot respond back to you as I would need your e-mail address.  I can leave a reply to your comment on the actual blog post; but, I cannot contact you without an e-mail address.  Thank you and I'm sorry for any inconvenience. 

I'm so glad that all my blog followers understand about giving credit where credit is due.  It has been a real honor and pleasure to help out everyone that has e-mailed me for instructions for my designs.  It is also fun to get to know everyone that is e-mailing to me.  If I can help in any way, please let me know by e-mail at   Dodge3670 at AOL dot COM.  
I will try to respond within the next 1-3 days!

Wishing you all a warm and sunny day!!!

Blessings! 

Lynn

11.01.18_HEADER_CLING_NA

Stampin' Up!'s red rubber stamps are now better then ever!

Cling stamps were first introduced in Japan beginning with their 2018-2019 annual catalog. The new stamp line has been a smashing success. We are excited to offer cling stamps in all other markets beginning with the 2019 occasions catalog and Sale-A-Bration brochure. During the transition, be sure to view product details carefully both in publications (each stamp type is identified with an icon) and when placing orders to note the stamp medium.


  • Beginning with the 2019 occasions catalog and Sale-A-Bration brochure, all new stamp sets will be available either in cling (for red rubber stamps) or photopolymer.
  • Stamps in the 2018-2019 annual catalog will continue to be available in clear-mount, wood-mount, or photopolymer.
  • Red rubber stamp sets (clear-mount or wood-mount) in the annual catalog that will be carrying over will transition to cling with the 2019-2020 annual catalog. Watch for more information about carryover stamp sets in April 2019 with the regularly scheduled communication about catalog transitions, the carryover list, and the retiring products list.



  • In 2019-2020 annual catalog, clear-mount and wood-mount stamps* will no longer be available. The only exception is background stamps in North America only, which will still be available in wood-mount.
    • *Wood-mount stamp set sales have been steadily declining for several years. Stampin’ Up! research and sales teams took this and several other factors into consideration before discontinuing wood-mount stamps. We are confident the transition to cling stamps will be beneficial in many ways for demonstrators, customers, and the company.
