Non-Traditional Christmas Gift Card Holder

Hey there friends, 

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

When I saw this Winter Fun stamp set tree- I know it was a curly

fun tree but I saw a Christmas Tree! I guess I have Christmas on the brain. 

 I decided to make it a gift card holder but not in the traditional way.

#1 none of the usual Christmas colors!

#2 putting the envelops to hold the gift card on the outside of a card. 

#3 non-traditional Christmas stamps...

I pretty much just went for it! LOL

Anyways- I love how it turned out and I love the gold heat embossing. 

Can you see I heat embossed in white for the snowflake too?

Then I added pearls and glitter...I mean how could I not?!

I would love it if you stopped by AA and told them you thought my 

projects this month weren't so shabby! LOL

Let them know I am in fact spreading the word! :) 

Have a wonderful day friends~

~Going Green For Christmas~

We all want to recycle, upcycle, and re-use...

When Purple Cows asked me to come up with quick
holidays ideas, I went back to when I first begin scrapbooking
I love covering old CD's, remember when all the internet
companies sent out millions? They don't as much anymore but
I still have tons of old CD's to recycle.
They make GREAT gift card holders to hang on the tree.If you want the step by step on these, check out
the Project Sheets on the Purple Cows blog!
You can easily make these for yourself!
I am using mine for the teachers this year,
sticking gift cards in for photo developing or anything
else the class might need.
~Thank you for stopping by today!~
~Happy HOLIDAYS to you and yours~
I wish I could bake you all goodies and mail them out
Today I begin the platters I make for all the neighbors,
fudge, sugar cookies, snicker doodles, chocolate chip cookies,
rice crispy treats, and possibly home made bread too!
Oh and the ever present Banana bread as well...
I love Christmas and the baking!

~Have a great Friday~
~Love to all~

~Creative for Christmas this Monday & RAK day~

Good morning!

I had the scrappy bug lastnight, you know I love scrapbooking
during the Christmas season.
Not the pictures of Christmas, but all the vintage unique and beautiful papers!
All the colors and glitter available, just makes me want to SCRAP!

This is the picture I shamelessly posed during out Christmas Tree hunt.

And some of the Graphic 45 Christmas paper.
I am also loving the new Prima Bling! WOOHOO! Love it!

You know...I have not done a RAK in a while have I?
It might be that time again....
How about an Alphabet RAK,
everyone needs more alphas whether you scrapbook or
make cards, or just craft!Some Kaiser Craft Alphas, some October Afternoon Alphas and
some Colorbok Alphas! A great mix!
You know the drill, make sure to be a follower,
make sure to leave a comment...and I will randomly choose a winner on Wednesday!

~Thanks for coming by to say hey~
~Have a great Monday wherever you may be~
