Fun Gift Cards

This Christmas season we gave mostly cash and gift cards because the kids in the family are all teens, twenty-somethings and pre-teens and that is what they all wanted. So I made some cute and fancy gift card/cash holders for them. For these I used a die and stamp set from Your Next Stamp and I am entering it in their current Challenge #194 -- Gifts

I will be back tomorrow to share another entry for this challenge. Until then....stay warm.

Snowone Like You

This year my family out of state are all getting gift cards so I am making them individual Christmas cards with matching gift card holders. This is one of my favorites that I made this year. I absolutely LOVE this stamp set from Newton's Nook....it was the first time using it. I am entering this card in the Newton's Nook Inky Paws Color Challenge. The challenge was to use kraft, teal, silver and white and I think it worked out perfectly with this card. I love that glittery silver paper....perfect paired with snowmen. Here is the card pictured with the gift card holder. It is formy 21 year old grandson so you know I had to use a funny sentiment on the gift card holder about getting a lump of coal. Seriously he is a great guy and I am super proud of him.

Well that is it for now....thank you for stopping by my blog and I hope you are enjoying the holiday season.

Merry Christmas Sweetheart

My younger son just got engaged on Thanksgiving. I couldn't be happier for both of them as I absolutely love Eliza. My son is 41 and never been married and I am so happy that he has found happiness and a wonderful life partner. This card is for Eliza. They live 1100 miles away and this year I am just sending gift cards to everyone so I made a coordinating gift card envelope. I used this perfect sketch from

That's about it for now. This is such a busy time of the year....my To Do List for today is full and I need to get crackin'. Thanks for visiting my blog.

Peace, Love & Treats

I have been very busy finishing up my Christmas cards the last couple of weeks. For this card I used a stamp set from Your Next Stamp that I had never used before and it is sooooo cute. I am entering this in the Candy Cane Challenge #193 at Your Next Stamp. I used red and white stripe paper that looks like a candy cane.

Well back to my craft room....I am making gift card holder tonight for my grandkids and nieces and nephews. It's a lot of work but I love being creative. Thanks for stopping by my blog.
