Creative DIY Gift Details

There are numerous, what I call, “sleeper products” in the annual catalog. One of them are the Acetate Card Boxes. Fill them with handmade cards and envelopes for a quick and impressive gift!

Creative gift ideas are always appreciated as teachers gifts.

The “To a Wild Rose” stamp set is both easy to use and versatile. This two-step stamp set provides realistic imagery for gorgeous roses and leaves. Use the greetings in the set or add use others from your stamp artillery. My greetings are from the Peaceful Moments stamp set.

These notecards with bold flower makes a great DIY Gift idea and they are so pretty

Taking the advice of my sister, who is not a stamper, I created each card with a different greeting. The ‘hello’ card is the perfect blank note card for those times you need a card without a specific theme.

A creative gift idea is made complete with this clear decorated box.

These four cards are heavily embellished with embossed and die cut layers and I was able to fit four, plus coordinating envelopes, into the Acetate Card Box. I chose a piece of designer paper to create a pretty wrap on the box and added a few leaves to coordinate with the cards. Be sure to add a tag or greeting to personalize your gift set.

A creative gift idea like these notecards are perfect as craft fair ideas to sell.
