The Iconic Celebration Designer Paper is among my favorites for the holidays due to the variety of patterns and colors. You can easily mix and match this paper with other patterns in the same package – or due to Stampin’ Up!’s custom color coordination – you can mix and match it with other Stampin’ Up! papers.
The Inside Details
Coordinated designer papers make it easy to carry a theme and color selection to the inside of your project as I’ve done here by decorating the inside flap. The little edge of Pretty Peacock cardstock provides a place to lift the flap while adding a little splash of color.
Make sure to watch today’s video on tips and tricks for putting this holder together. Strategic placement of the adhesive will ensure easy opening and a flawless finish.
Easy Gift Card Holders | Filled With Cheer
Whimsical and fun best describes the Filled With Cheer stamp set. This photopolymer stamp set is comprised of several timeless holiday images.
I used the Nests of Winter Designer Paper for this card and chose to match the top and bottom flaps unlike the first card I created. this leads to a cohesive feel when your focal image is detailed.
The Greetings of the Season Dies include a wide variety of sizes and shapes of tags – perfect for the holidays! The trendy stitched borders make them especially easy to hold images on your cards and scrapbook pages, too.
Several strands of baker’s twine are used together to create a hearty tassel for this tag once again showcasing the amazing coordination Stampin’ Up! is known for.
