Christmas Gleaming Gift Card Holder | Tutorial

December 18, 2019 1 Comment

I love making gift card holders – they’re so much nicer than using plain ‘ole holders from the store (and some don’t even come with a holder). I think you’re going to really enjoy today’s tutorial & that it’s going to come in handy-dandy for your gift-card giving this year!

Supplies:
  • Stamp
    Set

    –
    Christmas Gleaming Bundle (153006)
  • Card
    Stock
    –
    Thick Very Vanilla (144237); Pretty Peacock (150880); Brightly
    Gleaming Specialty Designer Paper (150429); Copper Foil Sheets
    (142020)
  • Stamp
    Pads

    – Pretty Peacock (150083); Night of Navy (147110); Versamark Pad
    (102283)
  • Misc.
    – 1” Circle Punch (119868); 2 ¼” Circle Punch (143720);
    Layering Circles Dies (141705); Tufted 3D Embossing Folder (146335);
    Aqua Painters (103954); Embossing Buddy (103083); Copper Stampin’
    Emboss Powder (141636); Heat Tool (129053); Tear & Tape Adhesive
    (138995); Mini Dimensionals (144108); Dimensionals (104430); Die
    Cutting & Embossing Machine
Measurements:

  • Thick
    Very Vanilla (base): 4 ¼” x 11”, score at 5 ½”
  • Thick
    Very Vanilla – scrap
  • Pretty
    Peacock – 3 ½” x 3 ½”
  • Copper
    Foil – 4” x 4”
  • Designer
    Paper – 3” x 12”, score at 5 ½” & 9 ½”

Instructions:

  1. Emboss
    the card base using the Tufted 3D Embossing Folder.
  2. Fold
    up the lower half of the designer paper so the opposite pattern is
    showing to create a pocket. Use the 1” Circle Punch to make a
    notch in the center of the designer paper. Adhere the pocket closed
    using Tear & Tape.
  3. Adhere
    the designer paper to the front and inside base of the cardstock as
    shown.
  4. Punch
    a 2 ¼” circle using Pretty Peacock cardstock. Emboss using the
    Tufted 3D Embossing Folder.
  5. Die
    cut a slightly larger circle than the Pretty Peacock cardstock using
    the Copper Foil Sheet and the Layering Circles Dies. Adhere it to
    the Pretty Peacock cardstock. Adhere these layers to the left side
    of the designer paper using Dimensionals.
  6. Lightly
    rub the Very Vanilla scrap cardstock with the Embossing Buddy. Stamp
    the ornament image using Versamark in on Thick Very Vanilla scrap
    cardstock. Immediately cover with copper embossing powder and heat
    set. Punch the ornament out using the coordinating punch.

  7. Using
    the Aqua Painter and Pretty Peacock ink, color in the ornament.
    Color in the topper of the ornament using Night of Navy ink. Ink
    will resist where there is heat embossing so after the cardstock has
    dried, blog the image using a clean, dry cloth to remove the
    water/ink from the copper embossed lines. Adhere the ornament to the
    center of the circle layers using a combination of Dimensionals and
    Mini Dimensionals.

  8. Stamp
    the greeting using Night of Navy ink on Thick Very Vanilla scrap
    cardstock. Cut around the perimeter of the greeting using your
    scissors. Adhere the greeting, overlapping the ornament as shown,
    using Mini Dimensionals.
  9. Insert
    the gift card inside the pocket on the inside of the card.


Enjoy the day & HAPPY STAMPING!

AvatarI joined Stampin' Up! the first night they arrived in Canada, April 2002, and what a ride it's been! At the time I just wanted the discount on all of the fabulous stamps and accessories - why pay full price if you don't have to, right? But little did I know where my journey with Stampin' Up! would take me. Read More…

    So so beautiful on the outside. Nice way to enclose a gift card. I'm always looking for ways to do something festive for gift cards. Thanks for the inspiration.
