Hi!  Are you in need of a last minute Christmas gift or 2? Still feeling a little crafty? It’s not too late to make a beautiful and useful gift card holder! I’m sharing a new tutorial at STAMPlorations.

I hope that you enjoy seeing the process I used to create this gift card envelope.

Poinsettias always remind me of how much my eldest daughter loves anything Christmas, and especially poinsettias.  She is one of the 4 greatest and most memorable gifts my husband I have ever received.

I used the following STAMPlorations products for this tutorial:

ATC/Gift Card Envelope – CUTplorations

Christmas Flower – STAMPlorations

Doily Squares – ARTplorations Stencil

What does Summertime fun mean to me?  I’d have to say yes to many of the following – spending time by the seaside, foreign travel, camping in the great outdoors or simply enjoying time in my garden?  Besides camping I have done all of these things this summer! This ATC holder is definitely inspired by my love of being in my garden.
