Vellum Card Holder

This is a vellum card holder with coordinating cards that I made as a gift for my mother-in-law’s birthday. She likes green and yellow, so I used mellow moss. I stamped fine lace on very vanilla cardstock and then wrapped some wide organdy ribbon around the card. I used the circle stamp from Think Happy…

Gift Boxes

I love making these gift boxes! I used the Baroque Backgrounds dsp and the beautiful chocolate satin ribbon. I made some little matching 3×3 cards to put inside: I used Baroque motifs and Priceless for the center medallions and layered them on a scalloped punched piece of cardstock. Then I punched a half circle out…

Christmas Cracker

Gift Jar

I love using these glass jars to make into some kind of gift. I covered this one with Wintergreen dsp and added some tags stamped with the Tags on Board stamp set. Now I have to decide who has been nice!
