#10 Gift Card Holders

Oh Monday,
why do you come so quickly!?
We are 3 days away from my 
GIVEAWAY!
Click HERE for details

Do you know what's the best last minute gift?
GIFT CARDS!
What's the best way to give a gift card?
In a handmade gift card holder of course!
I actually give these away as gifts too.

I loved the simplicity and functionality of this
I used heavy card stock for it to really hold its shape
and a strong adhesive...


Please excuse the poor photos, but I quickly took them
before giving them away!
I love that you can put anything on the front and even emboss the flap
for a fun, but subtle background.

And purple ones for my coworker...

I'm going to quickly add these to 

Much MAHALO for following me daily for a dose of 
Holiday inspiration!!

Picking Up the Pieces Monday Vol. 2

Happy Monday...I hope!  Welcome back to another edition of paper piecing.  One of the reasons I love to paper piece is because I'm not the best at coloring.  I love Copic markers and LOVE how you can create so much depth and shading, but unfortunately there are no classes here in Hawaii to learn the awesome art of Copic coloring. Everything is paper pieced except for her skin...I attempted the Copic coloring.

On to my paper pieced card with another fun technique...using double stick tape to create glitter strips! Chari made some beautiful Christmas cards with this technique and I had to try it out.

Dandelion Designs CL-17 Aloha Set, Lawn Fawn Stitched Journaling Die, Memetno Luxe Love Letter Ink, Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, Copics, Lawn Trimmings twine, Distress Glitter in Festive Berries, Spiced Marmalade, Mustard Seed, Mowed Lawn, Peacock Feathers and Seedless Preserves


I hope you enjoyed today's paper pieced card and fun glitter technique...until next time...MAHALO for stopping by!



More to Love!
