It's a really nice afternoon with lots of sun and some clouds. It sprinkled a little bit this morning and the rain has moved out. Our high temperature is supposed to be in the middle 70's AND...NO Humidity. Ahhhhhh...I can breath so much better! My allergies have been off the charts and the pollen is washed off the trees and there is yellow everywhere! YIKES!!!
Sorry I'm so late today! My Hubby had a very, very long eye appt. with 2 different Dr.'s in Saginaw this morning. He has to have Glaucoma and Cataract surgery some time in July. I tell ya', if it's not one thing, it's another!!! I'm hoping the surgery will help him out with the pressure and vision in his eye!!!
My share for today is a Gift Card Holder that I made using Stampin' Up's June 2018 Broadway Star Paper Pumpkin Kit. Let's take a look:
I just LOVE to make Alternate Cards and Projects with Stampin' Up's Paper Pumpkin Kits. So fun and I LOVE the challenge!!!
I took one of the Pre-Printed Envelopes from the Kit and cut the Flap straight down the center at 2-7/8". I sealed the left side down and folded the Envelope in half. See my picture above which is one of SU's plain envelopes that I keep on hand for my template.
Pictured above is the front of my Gift Card Holder.
I used Layering Ovals Framelits Dies on the Front of my Gift Card Holder.
I used the 2-1/8" x 3" Oval and die cut it from Whisper White Cardstock.
I used the 2-1/2" x 3-1/2" Oval and die cut it from Lovely Lipstick Cardstock.
Using SU's Broadway Star Stamp Set, I stamped the Stars onto the Whisper White Oval with Lovely Lipstick Ink.
I cut a long length of the Black/Gold Twine from the Kit and adhered it to the Front of the Gift Card Holder with Fast Fuse Tape (Retired) under where the Oval would be adhered so once the Oval is adhered, you cannot see the Tape.
I adhered both Ovals together with Mono Multi Purpose Glue and adhered them to my Gift Card Holder with Stampin' Dimensionals.
I adhered the Cake Die Cut with Stampin' Dimensionals and adhered one of the Candle Stickers to the top of the Cake.
I adhered 3 of the Self Adhesive Gold Sequins and 3 Pearls from the Kit randomly as shown in the picture above.
Above is a picture of the inside of my Gift Card Holder.
For the Left Side:
I trimmed out a panel from the the Black/White Striped Card Base in the Kit to measure 2-5/8" x 3-1/2" and adhered it to the Left Side with Mono Multi Purpose Glue.
Using SU's Treehouse Adventure Stamp Set, I stamped Happy Birthday onto Lovely Lipstick Cardstock, punched it out with the Tailored Tag Punch and adhered the Tag with Mono Multi Purpose Glue.
I adhered 3 Candle Stickers and 3 Balloon Stickers from the Kit as shown in the picture above.
For the Right Side:
I trimmed out 2 panels of SU's Lemon Lime Twist Cardstock to measure 2-3/16" x 2-5/8".
Using SU's new Tufted Embossing Folder, I ran the panels through my BIG Shot. (Note: I sprayed the Tufted Embossing Folder lightly with water in a SU Stampin' Spritzer so the paper would not tear or crack.)
I adhered one panel to the front side of the Flap, trimmed off any excess White of the Flap that overhangs and adhered the second panel to the other side of the Flap with Mono Multi Purpose Glue.
I adhered one of the Cake Die Cuts from the Kit partially onto the Flap with Mono Mutli Purpose Glue as shown in the picture above.
I adhered half of a Velcro Dot to the underside of the Cake Die Cut. I then adhered the second half of the Velcro Dot to the first half and folded the Flap down to adhere the second half of the Velcro Dot to the Gift Card Holder. (This way, it makes for easy and more accurate positioning of the Velcro Dot sections.)
I took one of the Lemon Lime Twist Pre-Printed Banner Stickers from the Kit and cut around the Banner leaving the backing on the Sticker.
I trimmed the Banner Sticker down to measure 2-3/8" x 4-1/8" (4-1/8" is measured from the top of Banner to the end of the Point.)
I adhered two SU Glue Dots to the back of my Gift Card and then adhered the Gift Card to my Banner and slid it into the pocket on the Right Side.
The last thing to do was to tie the ends of the Black/Gold Twine into a Bow.
This was such a fun Gift Card Holder Project. I LOVE to embellish the inside and out.
Wishing you all a warm and sunny day!!!
Blessings!
